majority watch

Before the 2006 mid-term elections, Republicans controlled the Senate, the House, and the executive branch. Remember those days? Yuk. Anyways, Constituent Dynamics (a Seattle based polling outfit) and RT Strategies (a bipartisan public affairs research group) had a feeling the Dems were going to take back the House in a BIG way. They decided to poll the top 60 contested seats during the 10 weeks before the election. They asked me to design and develop an interactive site to show the polling results along with demographic data in the district. We wanted to make sure that we provided enough data to satisfy the nerdiest of number crunchers, while making it fun for the non-political types.

Although our results were a tad more optimistic than the actual outcome, the Republicans did get their ass served.

This site won a silver Pollie award in the National Public Affairs Website category.
