This election map is truly well designed. Without distortion this approach solves both the problem of mixed colors neutralizing to a level of meaningless inseparable gray, as well as using an additional brightness value to counter pointless emphasis on barely populated regions. Bravo! I hope this approach catches on with more publications.
