<p>it would also be interesting to throw some driving-distance rings
aroudn all that. I think the high (relative) participation of
KY, VA, PA might explain some of that. MTs high participation
might reflect something about variances and low denominators... if
like 3 people jumped in the front of their pickup and drove to DC
from MT, that alone might have skewed it all.</p>
<p>I found myself hovering the original map for "elected" and
"running for office" individuals because they have an implied
leverage that the average yahoo doesn't. Either by being IN
office or by being in front of beaucoup media to rattle on about
their favorite boogieman in front of a camera and/or microphone.<br>

<div dir="ltr">Barry also made me wonder whether their map was
just a population map in disguise.
<div>I put the data into a google sheet and came up with another
map; this one is scaled by the population of each state.
Indeed I think that the original was misleading. Not
surprisingly, this map actually highlights the states nearer
to the DC area. <br>
<div>The numbers of participants are very small compared to
the population of each state. Does anyone know if there is a
significance test that would work for this data, as I don't
remember much from statistics class? Here is a link to the

while I disagree with the minor point Barry makes about the
coloring (e.g. CA is darker but with larger pop than TX, same
re NY and PA), the visualization isn't the point. The point is
a database GUI so you can hover and see the vector of numbers,
click to see the names, etc.<br>

As for putting them down hard, I tend to think the death by
1000 cuts is more effective. The actual penalty isn't really
the deterrent. The deterrent is being "in the System" ...
having the bureaucracy keep an eye on you. Look at the many
people whose outlook has deteriorated simply from The System
Gaze. When Rittenhouse was acquitted, it reminded me of
Zimmermann <<a

child movie/music stars, and cancelled professors/pundits.
Unless you've got a really solid support system, that focused
attention will be excruciating. You'll learn to punch the
paparazzi in the face and hermit yourself away quickly ... or
die from a drug overdose eventually.<br>
<br>
Swift punishment is supposed to be a citizen right. But if The
System Gazes at you, that's the real punishment. Plus, many
people have short attention spans. So if you put some down
hard, you'll radicalize some onlookers. But if you put them
down over, say, 10 years, the onlookers get bored or
distracted.<br>

Would it change anything if they were dead in front of the

For completeness I’ll add West Virginia which seceded from
Virginia when Virginiu seceded from the US. (I think some
counties in east Tennessee also seceded, but weren’t enough to
make a state and weren’t contiguous with the US.<br>
