It's Election Day in the United States. Go vote! 🗳️

Today has us thinking about the political data projects we've worked on over the years. Not the campaigns themselves, but the questions underneath them: who runs for office, who wins, where the money comes from, and who is still missing from the room.

Our partners spend years collecting that data. Our job is to make it something anyone can see and understand.

A few in this reel:

Center for American Women and Politics at Rutgers — most recently a data explorer and county report cards that turn years of findings on women in New Jersey's public offices into a few clicks

Vote Run Lead — State of My Democracy and Charting Paths to a Women's Majority, showing what it would take, state by state, to reach a women's majority in every legislature

Ipsos — the Political Atlas, interactive maps and charts for exploring the political landscape

Working America, the community affiliate of the AFL-CIO — a scrolling data story on what on-the-ground organizing adds up to in battleground states

And one of our own: Timeplots, large-format posters of American political history, including a visual history of the U.S. House of Representatives

Thank you to the partners who bring us this data, and to the Graphicacy team who design and build these tools.

The U.S. has now recorded more measles cases in 2026 than in all of 2025, the highest count in 35 years.

When an outbreak moves that fast, reporters, clinicians and state health officials all need the same thing: numbers they can trust, quickly, and can act on with confidence.

That's what the U.S. Disease Tracker was built for. Working with Johns Hopkins University, we designed and built a tracker that brings vital U.S. health data together in one clear, up-to-date view.

Built with Johns Hopkins University and project co-leads Lauren Gardner, Shaun Truelove and William Moss.

More than 100 hours of footage. Nearly 500 firsthand accounts. One day, told in the order it unfolded.

To mark 25 years since the September 11 attacks, National Geographic launched its 9/11 video archive, including more than 20 hours never seen publicly. We led its design and development, organizing every clip on a single timeline of the day that you can move through by time, place or topic.

The archive holds the voices of survivors, family members, first responders and eyewitnesses. We are grateful to have helped make them accessible, and we dedicate this work to those lost and to everyone who still carries that day.

Thank you to the team at National Geographic for trusting us with this project. We invite you to sit with the accounts collected in the archive at natgeo.com/911archive.

"We have data nobody else does." Chelsea Hill, Director of Data, CAWP

For about two decades, the Center for American Women and Politics at Rutgers has tracked women's representation across all 21 New Jersey counties. Our job was to help more people see it.

We built an interactive explorer and county report cards that show, at a glance, where representation is growing and where it's falling behind, from the statehouse to the township council. As voters head into the midterms, it shows who is shaping policy in their communities.

It's our fourth project with CAWP, after a campaign finance story, a contributions explorer and a full site redesign.

Built with the Center for American Women and Politics (CAWP).

History, preserved. Truth, visualized.

When protests swept Hong Kong in 2019 and 2020, police responded with force. The Hong Kong Accountability Archive compiled thousands of street-level videos to document the violence and protect the historical record against revisionism.

We designed and built three linked views (a map, a breakdown by type of action, and an animated timeline) that turn that footage into searchable evidence of where, when and how events unfolded.

Filters for protest permits and police warnings support legal accountability, and many incidents link directly to the original video.

The project was a Silver winner at the 5th Annual Anthem Awards.

How financially healthy is your community?

Financial health goes beyond income. It means knowing whether residents can weather emergencies, plan for retirement, afford utilities and get the support they need to thrive.

The Urban Institute's expanded Financial Health and Wealth Dashboard gives a fuller picture of how people, especially low- and moderate-income households and communities of color, are faring in the affordability crisis. We're proud to keep supporting the Urban team in visualizing this data, helping leaders make decisions that center equity, resilience and opportunity.

Built with the Urban Institute. Share this with someone working on affordability in your community.

How do you build a data explorer for health ministries in every region on earth, and for the general public?

That was the question behind the Global Access to Skin Health Observatory, a first-of-its-kind survey of dermatologic care across all 194 WHO member states, from the International League of Dermatological Societies and L'Oréal Dermatological Beauty.

We started with static charts for the team's JAMA Dermatology article, then built a full interactive explorer: 15 survey topics, country maps and charts, comparisons by income level and WHO region, and downloadable data in English, Spanish and French.

"The final version exceeds our expectations." Dr. Esther Freeman, Principal Investigator

Built with The International League of Dermatological Societies (ILDS) and L’Oreal Dermatological Beauty. Explore more of our global health work at graphicacy.com/work.

How do you show progress on the world's biggest challenges, all in one place?

Curbing global warming, halting biodiversity loss and building a more equitable economy depend on change across whole systems, from food to finance. World Resources Institute, the Bezos Earth Fund and partners created the Systems Change Lab to track it.

With interactive agency Outright, we designed and built the platform's visualizations, including the "pinwheel," a radial view of hundreds of indicators. It launched at COP27 and was shortlisted for the 2023 Information is Beautiful Awards.

"We landed on an end product that was much easier to understand." Cathline Dickens, Product Manager, Systems Change Lab

Built for World Resources Institute (WRI) with Outright. Save this for your next climate data deep dive.

Decades of data on women in American politics, now easier to explore.

The Center for American Women and Politics (CAWP) at Rutgers has long been the leading source of data on women in U.S. politics. But as its platform grew, so did the complexity of finding that information.

We redesigned and reengineered CAWP's digital home for journalists, researchers and the public: streamlined navigation, a modernized CMS, new interactive visualizations, and the Women Elected Officials Database, which catalogs women in office back to 1893, now built right in.

"Their project management processes kept us focused and ultimately delivered a useful site we can be proud of." Chelsea Hill, Director of Data, CAWP

Thank you to the CAWP team for their collaboration and trust. Find the full story at graphicacy.com/work.

Is your state living within its means?

For more than a decade, Pew's Fiscal 50 has helped policymakers, journalists and the public understand what drives state budgets. By its 10th birthday, the site was showing it's age.

We rebuilt it from the ground up: a mobile-friendly suite of charts, new profile pages tracking eight key fiscal indicators for every state, and data-driven text that updates as new figures arrive. It was a three-way collaboration between Pew's State Fiscal Health team, Pew's creative and digital team, and ours.

"We felt heard by Graphicacy throughout." Melissa Maynard, Project Director, State Fiscal Health, The Pew Charitable Trusts

Built with The Pew Charitable Trusts. Find the full story at graphicacy.com/work.
