Obama Wins Nomination!
OK - well that’ll be tonight. Hilary’s bringing in her big supporters to New York. Bill’s said that he won’t be involved in a presidential campaign for while. And Obama needs 43 delegates to win. All signs point to yes. I’ve updated the Election Center. Unfortunately the state by state data is totally screwed up (not sure if it’s me or CNN (probably me)), so I commented out that tab. I’ll try to fix that tonight.
103 Delegates Today
Getting near the end - Oregon and Kentucky hold their primaries today. Looks like Clinton will win Kentucky (51 delegates). Obama will win Oregon (52 delegates). And Clinton will continue to smoke the high grade and think she can somehow win. I updated the election center and added a summary tab. The tab contains two charts: a pie chart showing current totals; and a bar chart showing how many delegates each candidate needs to win. Most telling is Clinton needs to win 72% of the remaining delegates to win.
Election Center Update!
Updated the counts and added some more charts. Not perfect, but, better. Here it is. Also, lots of bugs when you resize!
Flex Data Visualization component source is available
I had been working w/ the Flex beta (where you couldn’t get at the source) for so long, I just gave up. But, you can get at the charting component source if you buy Flex Builder Pro. Not open source, but, all I want to do is override methods. (via Pearls of Flex)
