The map shows how much people have given to a given presidential candidate in each county, state, or 3-digit zip code.


I'd be interested in seeing a slightly tweaked version of the map, showing the amount people have given in that county/state/zip divided by the population there. Or, better yet, with some other factors that take average income into account. That way, we could get a handle on the question: in each part of the country, how good is each candidate at convincing voters to part with their disposable income?
