Cartogram


Cartograms are maps that have been altered to help measure the variable being used. This is a map of the 2004 election between John Kerry with the blue states and George Bush with the red states. A lot of the smaller states have large populations and are blue. A lot of the red states are large with smaller populations. This map alters the size of the states so that you don't have to think about population density.
