Voting Analysis: Georgia & Texas

This project explores partisan shifts and voter turnout in Georgia and Texas over recent election cycles. Using publicly available voting data, I cleaned and organized the information in Excel, wrote a Python script to calculate vote percentages, and visualized the results using multiple comparative charts and analyses.

Georgia and Texas were chosen due to their contrasting electoral trends: Georgia's recent swing toward Democratic candidates and Texas's evolving but traditionally Republican base. By analyzing this data over time, the project sheds light on broader regional political dynamics and highlights the importance of voter engagement and demographic shifts.

Key Findings:

• Georgia 2020 Result: Biden won with 49.5% vs Trump's 49.3% (0.2% margin)
• Texas 2020 Result: Trump won with 52.1% vs Biden's 46.9% (5.2% margin)
• Most Competitive County: Williamson County, TX (49.8% Biden vs 48.5% Trump)
• County Analysis: 89 Georgia counties vs 45 Texas counties

Technical Skills Demonstrated:

• Data Cleaning: Excel and Python for data standardization and validation
• Statistical Analysis: Vote percentage calculations and correlation analysis
• Data Visualization: Multiple chart types using matplotlib and seaborn
• Web Development: HTML/CSS for project presentation
• Geographic Analysis: County-level electoral mapping and comparison
