Seems good so far @slednicky and @JuliaClaireLee

thank you for doing so many things over break @JuliaClaireLee !!!

We should change the function so the plot is a bit prettier, maybe make the information on it slightly clearer, but otherwise it's a really cool kind of information to show. There are definitely easy style things to change. Then we can apply it to the whole list of states and make sure we can see all the resulting 50 plots at once.

I'm going to work on making the function put out a prettier looking plot unless @JuliaClaireLee wants to. One of us needs to work on code folding and organizing, and one of us needs to write descriptions. I'm happy to do any of it.

thanks @emilyamorris for organizing this thread

I'm happy to start working on code folding / organizing / descriptions / anything else that comes up !

a couple questions: is anyone else having trouble knitting since the file is so large? also, @emilyamorris is the bit at the end the idea you had about possibly mapping incumbents vs challengers? trying to figure out where we can go next/ how I can be the most help

[emilyamorris]

It didn't take me very long to write that and I have another thing I wanna add. I think it's maybe a better option to go with because we don't need to use separate state maps and it does everything on the rubric but a function. I'm going to write a function for another graph that looks at states with the highest numbers of incumbent versus challenger winners. If you wanna write a description for the first one at some point today that would be super cool? Idk when we wanna meet up Emily Morris Smith College Biochemistry '19 Eamorris@smith.edu 215-421-0492 <(215)%20421-0492>

I did some revising, feel free to edit though, especially the comparison between republican and democratic. I think there's prob some more intelligent things to say, I'm just not thinking of them atm. I will also come back to it later and take another look. Also, I'm not sure what to say under the "setting up the plot function" heading. thanks all !!
