Andrew Heiss@andrew.heiss.phd · 11mo agoExcited to present at #PositConf2025 this morning w/ @gosterhout.bsky.social about how we used #rstats, tidyverse, {targets} & #QuartoPub to build Idaho's election results reporting website last year! See our slides + a whole DIY election processing pipeline at andrewheiss.github.io/election-des...
Barton, Susie, and Lon were the highest turnout names in 2024, while Hudson and Asher had the lowest turnout. #idpol
Once again asking people to keep in mind that a relative spike in google searches for a specific term does not necessarily mean a high level of absolute interest in that term
Had an issue where {htmlwidgets} in my shiny app weren't displaying in an iframe embedded on a website. Turned out to be a permissioning issue that was solved by calling the resource directly from the CDN. #rstats
Since it's in Atlanta, I'll be here at my first posit::conf! I'll be speaking here with @gosterhout.bsky.social about election night reporting with #rstats and #QuartoPub (showing off {targets} and other neat tricks like this: www.andrewheiss.com/blog/2024/11... )

Heyyy @gosterhout.bsky.social is here! Follow him for civic dataviz and #rstats stuff!
Gabe Osterhout@gosterhout.bsky.social · 2y agoStates spend too much on clunky election night reporting. We just replaced ours using #rstats. dbplyr backend + reactable & leaflet viz + #quartopub site. Real magic happened with programmatic code chunks & targets pipeline done by @andrew.heiss.phd. #dataviz results.voteidaho.gov

Just finished a neat side project consulting with the Idaho Secretary of State's office to help create an #rstats + #QuartoPub website for election results, and it just worked (flawlessly!) last night with their primary election results.voteidaho.gov
And huuuge props to @gosterhout.bsky.social who designed and built and live-updated the thing!
