Wilmington: The Young Future

Filed in National by on September 15, 2016

I have developed a new love of maps, and will be preparing several showing other races. But here is a map of Wilmington showing Young’s strength in the city. If my review of the data is correct, Eugene Young either came in first, second or third place in all but one small district of the city. The first place finishes are colored in gold, the second place finishes in yellow, and the third place finishes in a light yellow. It shows you what Cassandra was saying earlier: his campaign was city wide and pretty damn spectacular. Young was competitive in all parts of the city. He will be back.

    This is brilliant, DD.

    There’s still alot of energy left in Team Young and this is why. A real citywide Mayoral campaign. Kevin Kelley ran a citywide campaign too. We can’t continue to be a polarized city and still be a functional city that will be attractive for folks to move to. There’s alot of us who are very hopeful that this is the last Mayoral election that takes advantage of the city’s broken politics.

    This is very interesting stuff. Is there a corresponding heat map of Purzycki support?

    I think that map has been requested from our guru, but no idea if that is forthcoming since I know he does have a day job. I do think it would be very interesting to see.
