I found this bar chart in The Guardian very attractive when I first saw it (because it’s clear and playful) but when I had a better look, I missed a lot of information. I want to know which exact percents we’re talking about, how many people that means and maybe even some more information about the undercount in different States of America. Also it would have added great value if the journalist had visualised data on what this undercount means. So how many dollars do certain communities risk to loose, and how exactly does this it influence the political representation?
