Look at an electoral map such as those at CNN, New York Times, or Pollster, and it looks like America is a sea of red (for Republican) with pockets of blue (Democrat). The problem is conventional maps based on landmass do not accurately reflect the Electoral College. Instead they are an unwitting manifestation of media bias.
To remedy this, I approached Personal Democracy Forum founder Andrew Rasiej and we jointly commissioned web design firm StudioE9 (who donated a portion of their time) to create a map to accurately reflect each state’s electoral vote value.
