A visualization constructed using the vega-lite-api.

A program that loads and parses some CSV data from the Reflective Democracy American Sheriffs database.

The data has been cleaned in Excel to fix case discrepancies and remove percentage sign characters.

The visualization shows the distribution of sheriffs elected categorized by racial identity of the official along the X axis and percentage of non white residents of the electing community along the Y axis. Point color indicates political party affiliation of the elected official and the mark sizing indicates the size of the community population.
