CARTO's Election Mapping Webinar explores how media outlets can provide viewers with more context on the 2016 U.S. Presidential election through geographical context and interactive visualizations. CARTO Builder adds value to content by allowing users to create their own election maps, including choropleth maps for overview, dasymetric maps for zooming and filtering, and dot density maps for detailed analysis. These visualizations can help shift the focus from journalist-centered news to data journalism, providing a more nuanced understanding of the election's impact at a local level.
