At which individual precinct in #Amsterdam did each party do best, in these provincial elections? I made an #ElectionMap.

Methodological note: this is about polling stations (stembureaus), not polling locations (stemlocaties) — sometimes there are more than one stembureau at a stemlocatie.

Bonus: a #Berlin #ElectionMap for the combined vote of The Greys and The Grey Panthers. Unsurprisingly stronger in the suburbs where more older voters live.

I do love the NYT's Biden '20-> Congress '22 shift #electionmap in progress. But they'd be even better if there was one showing the shift from the last congressional #election too.

Kentucky and Missouri for example show up as very blue here, but they moved right compared to the previous election there.

Nice little detail how the dots in this #electionmap are arranged in Texas
