also, the scaling on the red dots is purposely deceptive

2019-10-03 21:49:30 UTC  

with most of them being the same size

2019-10-03 21:50:27 UTC  

Lol what

2019-10-03 21:50:44 UTC  

No, the scaling is the point

2019-10-03 21:50:58 UTC  

The size represents the margin AND the size of the district

2019-10-03 21:51:02 UTC  

no, it doesn't show a clear distinction between population for smaller sizes

2019-10-03 21:51:03 UTC  

nope

2019-10-03 21:51:18 UTC  

... yes

2019-10-03 21:51:23 UTC  

try again libtard

2019-10-03 21:51:23 UTC  

Did... did you read it?

2019-10-03 21:51:27 UTC  

What is your claim?

2019-10-03 21:51:37 UTC  

that the chart is garbage and purposely deceptive

2019-10-03 21:51:54 UTC  

In what way is it deceptive?

2019-10-03 21:52:02 UTC  

read above

2019-10-03 21:52:05 UTC  

Each circle represents the vote margin

2019-10-03 21:52:10 UTC  

So if there were a huge district

2019-10-03 21:52:18 UTC  

That was evenly split

2019-10-03 21:52:30 UTC  

It would be no circle

2019-10-03 21:52:55 UTC  

Do you have an example of a district you think that chart shows inaccurately?

2019-10-03 21:53:25 UTC  

it trys to make it look like visually, the republicans had significantly less of the vote

2019-10-03 21:53:30 UTC  

They did

2019-10-03 21:53:31 UTC  

which is entirely untrue

2019-10-03 21:53:45 UTC  

it's just dishonest chart making at it's finest

2019-10-03 21:53:48 UTC  

Clinton had 3 million more votes

2019-10-03 21:53:48 UTC  

simple as

2019-10-03 21:54:10 UTC  

Like, what are you even claiming

2019-10-03 21:54:19 UTC  

simple as

2019-10-03 21:54:28 UTC  

This is showing the actual vote counts

2019-10-03 21:54:44 UTC  

Democrats are more concentrated, so the dots are fewer, but larger

2019-10-03 21:54:57 UTC  

Republicans are more distributed, so the dots are smaller, but many

2019-10-03 21:55:47 UTC  

If you add up all the area or all the dots, the blue would be a little larger than the red- what was the final margin?

2019-10-03 21:56:09 UTC  

2.1%

2019-10-03 21:56:20 UTC  

Was Clinton’s margin of popular victory

2019-10-03 21:56:42 UTC  

simple as

2019-10-03 21:57:15 UTC  

... yes honey, simple as

2019-10-03 21:57:26 UTC  

Do you understand it now?

2019-10-03 21:57:36 UTC  

people use deceptive charts all the time, i'm not surprised you don't see the bias

2019-10-03 21:58:05 UTC  

You haven’t made a claim of what the bias is

2019-10-03 21:58:14 UTC  

that was the first thing I did

2019-10-03 21:58:29 UTC  

No you didn’t

2019-10-03 21:58:37 UTC  

I forgot that you can't read
