Step 2: add columns % and margin

nhdata$SandersMarginVotes <- nhdata$Sanders - nhdata$Clinton
nhdata$SandersPct <- (nhdata$Sanders) / (nhdata$Sanders + nhdata$Clinton) 
nhdata$ClintonPct <- (nhdata$Clinton) / (nhdata$Sanders + nhdata$Clinton)
nhdata$SandersMarginPctgPoints <- nhdata$SandersPct - nhdata$ClintonPct

Step 3: Get Geo data

usgeo <- shapefile("cb_2014_us_county_5m/cb_2014_us_county_5m.shp")

Step 4: Quick Plot of US and of NH

qtm(usgeo)

view(usgeo)

Subset the NH data and map it

nhgeo <- usgeo[usgeo$STATEFP==nhfipscode,]
qtm(nhgeo)

Manipulate data; convert county names to character

Step 5: Make Static Maps

qtm(nhmap, "SandersMarginVotes")

qtm(nhmap, "SandersMarginPctgPoints")

tm_shape(nhmap) +
  tm_fill("SandersMarginVotes", title="Sanders Margin, Total Votes", palette = "PRGn") +
  tm_borders(alpha=.5) +
  tm_text("NAME", size=0.8) +
  tm_layout(legend.width = .6)

Regraph static map in classic style and save it to “nhdemprimary.jpg”

nhstaticmap <- tm_shape(nhmap) +
tm_fill("SandersMarginVotes", title="Sanders Margin, Total Votes", palette = "viridis") +
tm_borders(alpha=.5) +
tm_text("NAME", size=0.8) + 
tm_style("classic")  +
  tm_layout(legend.width = .6)
nhstaticmap

tmap_save(nhstaticmap, filename="nhdemprimary.jpg") 

Step 6: Make Interactive Maps for Clinton in NH

clintonPalette <- colorNumeric(palette = "Blues", domain=nhmap$ClintonPct)  # color palette for Clinton
nhpopup <- paste0("County: ", nhmap$NAME,
" - Sanders ", percent(nhmap$SandersPct), " - Clinton ", percent(nhmap$ClintonPct)) # popup content
nhmap_projected <- sp::spTransform(nhmap, "+proj=longlat +datum=WGS84")
leaflet(nhmap_projected) %>%
  addProviderTiles("CartoDB.Positron") %>%
  addPolygons(stroke=FALSE, 
              smoothFactor = 0.2, 
              fillOpacity = .8, 
              popup=nhpopup,
              color= ~clintonPalette(nhmap$ClintonPct))

Step 7: Make South Carolina Map: get data and do a quick plot

scdata <- import(scdatafile)
scgeo <- usgeo[usgeo@data$STATEFP=="45",]
qtm(scgeo)

Modify the SC dataset: add columns (9-15) with percent votes for candidates in columns 2-7; then identify the winner in each county

#candidates <- colnames(scdata[2:7])
for(i in 2:7){
  j = i + 7
  scdata[[j]] <- scdata[[i]] / scdata$Total
  colnames(scdata)[j] <- paste0(colnames(scdata)[i], "Pct")
}  
winner <- colnames(scdata[2:7])
for(i in 1:nrow(scdata)){
  scdata$winner[i] <- names(which.max(scdata[i,2:7]))}

Import spreadsheet with % adult population with at least 4-yr college degree; check scgeo name and sced county columns are identiccal and merge by name=county.

sced <- import("SCdegree.xlsx")
str(scgeo$NAME)
##  chr [1:46] "Edgefield" "Lee" "Horry" "Allendale" "Marion" "Dorchester" ...
str(scdata$County)
##  chr [1:46] "Abbeville" "Aiken" "Allendale" "Anderson" "Bamberg" "Barnwell" ...
# Change the county names to plain characters in scgeo:
scgeo$NAME <- as.character(scgeo$NAME)
# Order each data set by county name
scgeo <- scgeo[order(scgeo$NAME),]
scdata <- scdata[order(scdata$County),]
# check name and county columns are identical
if (identical(scgeo$NAME,scdata$County )) {
scmap <- merge(scgeo, scdata, by.x = "NAME", by.y = "County")
} else {stop}

Create color palettes:
differenticate the winners by color and their win difference (max-min) by scale of color

minpct <- min(c(scdata$`Donald J TrumpPct`, scdata$`Marco RubioPct`, scdata$`Ted CruzPct`)) # min votes
maxpct <- max(c(scdata$`Donald J TrumpPct`, scdata$`Marco RubioPct`, scdata$`Ted CruzPct`)) # max votes
# Create leaflet palettes for each layer of the map:
trumpPalette <- colorNumeric(palette = "Purples", domain=c(minpct, maxpct))   # w/color scale
rubioPalette <- colorNumeric(palette = "Reds", domain = c(minpct, maxpct))    # w/color scale
cruzPalette <- colorNumeric(palette = "Oranges", domain = c(minpct, maxpct))  # w/color scale
winnerPalette <- colorFactor(palette=c("#984ea3", "#e41a1c"), domain = scmap$winner)
edPalette <- colorNumeric(palette = "Blues", domain=scmap$PctCollegeDegree)

Create a pop-up and add the geographic projection

scpopup <- paste0("<b>County: ", scmap$NAME, "<br />Winner: ", scmap$winner, "</b><br /><br />Trump: ", percent(scmap$`Donald J TrumpPct`), "<br />Rubio: ", percent(scmap$`Marco RubioPct`), "<br />Cruz: ", percent(scmap$`Ted CruzPct`), "<br /><br />Pct w college ed: ", sced$PctCollegeDegree, "% vs state-wide avg of 25%")

scmap <- sp::spTransform(scmap, "+proj=longlat +datum=WGS84")  # add the projection

Step 8: Make an interactive graph with county winners

leaflet(scmap) %>%
  addProviderTiles("CartoDB.Positron") %>%
  addPolygons(stroke=TRUE,
              weight=1,
              smoothFactor = 0.2,
              fillOpacity = .75,
              popup=scpopup, 
              color= ~winnerPalette(scmap$winner),
              group="Winners" ) %>%
    addLegend(position="bottomleft", colors=c("#984ea3", "#e41a1c"), labels=c("Trump", "Rubio")) 

Step 9: Make a map with top 3 candidates, add education layer

scGOPmap <- leaflet(scmap) %>%
  addProviderTiles("CartoDB.Positron") %>%
  addPolygons(stroke=TRUE,
              weight=1,
              smoothFactor = 0.2,
              fillOpacity = .75,
              popup=scpopup, 
              color= ~winnerPalette(scmap$winner),
              group="Winners"  ) %>% 
    addLegend(position="bottomleft", colors=c("#984ea3", "#e41a1c"), labels=c("Trump", "Rubio"))  %>%

  addPolygons(stroke=TRUE,
     weight=1,
     smoothFactor = 0.2, 
     fillOpacity = .75, 
     popup=scpopup, 
     color= ~trumpPalette(scmap$`Donald J TrumpPct`),
     group="Trump") %>%

  addPolygons(stroke=TRUE,
              weight=1,
              smoothFactor = 0.2, 
              fillOpacity = .75, 
              popup=scpopup, 
              color= ~rubioPalette(scmap$`Marco RubioPct`),
              group="Rubio") %>%

  addPolygons(stroke=TRUE,
              weight=1,
              smoothFactor = 0.2, 
              fillOpacity = .75, 
              popup=scpopup, 
              color= ~cruzPalette(scmap$`Ted CruzPct`),
              group="Cruz") %>%

  addPolygons(stroke=TRUE,
              weight=1,
              smoothFactor = 0.2, 
              fillOpacity = .75, 
              popup=scpopup, 
              color= ~edPalette(sced$PctCollegeDegree), #this data is in the sced table, not scmaps
              group="College degs") %>%

  addLayersControl(
      baseGroups=c("Winners", "Trump", "Rubio", "Cruz", "College degs"),
      position = "bottomleft",
      options = layersControlOptions(collapsed = FALSE))

scGOPmap 

Step 10: Create a self-contained HTML file

htmlwidgets::saveWidget(widget=scGOPmap, file="Hwk10_scGOPprimary.html")
