Visualizing Congressional Votes on the Coronavirus Relief Package – “The Washington Post has created a series of visualizations that show how sharply polarized Congressional votes on the coronavirus relief package were. Even though most Americans support the bill, one visualization shows that there were only three votes in Congress that were not Democrats voting to pass the bill and Republicans voting against it. This is due, in part, to the fact that most members of Congress represent districts where voters have become increasingly split along party lines. In fact, another visualization shows that the 2020 election had one of the lowest rates of split-ticket voting, which is where voters choose different parties for different offices in an election.”
