Voter Travel Behavior

The purpose of this project is to provide insight into the nuanced relations between where voters live and where they choose to cast their ballots, assisting in preparation for the next generation of in-person voting.

Throughout the project, geospatial mapping techniques are applied to historical voter turnout data generated by electronic poll pads to explore the site selection behaviors of voters in a vote center model.
