Unstandardized choropleth map


This map is unstandard in that it shows no aerial average. This is a map from the 2008 election that displays the republican in red and democrats in blue. It does not show population density so just by looking at it people might think that Cheney won when in fact it was a landslide victory for Obama. Many times standardized choropleth maps are used as a tactic to deceive people.
