Abstract | This paper describes how the computer program "Elections," was used to trace voting patterns during Super Tuesday, the U.S. presidential primary elections held on March 5, 1988. The voting results were entered into the computer as the primary returns were reported on national television. The computer mapping provided an improved means for ascertaining how aggregate votes were distributed. The voting data were entered at the county level, from primary candidates selected, and by votes compared through tracking of voting behavior. Five references and a one-page summary of the "Elections" program are included. (DJC) |
