Abstract

This issue of the Periodic Atlas focuses on how metroscape residents voted in the 2000 general election. We have used geographic information systems (GIS) technology to map the distribution of votes in each election precinct across the region for the presidential race and all the measures on the Oregon ballot. On the pages that follow, we present some of the more revealing results.
