Cartograms take data and manipulate a visualization to better represent numerical data. This map represents electoral college votes and their proportions towards each other. Notice that the data represented is nearly split. This is indicative of the actual results of the election. This type of map makes it easier to see how the country was represented by the electoral college, rather than the size of the state.
