Data day. Working on #NativeVote18 #SheRepresents spreedsheets
Syndication
I have been working on #NativeVote18 lists ... folks running for state legislatures (55 and counting, 25 women and 30 men). I have also been working on a list of Native American women who have run for state wide offices and Congress. Fascinating stuff. (I was thinking of a trivia game I could post.) There have been four candidates for governor, three for Lt. Gov., and 12 for Congress. First statewide race that I have found, 1978. Cool stuff. #SheRepresents will post this soon. I want to make a graphic.
Here is the #NativeVote18 state legislature list. Who's missing?
One thing I should mention: Google has changed the way you can access pictures and it no longer is compatible with fusion tables. So I am looking for a solution or a new spreadsheet system. #Transparency
