Our latest data visualizations continue to analyze the results of Tuesday's election.

➡️Democrats Increased Lead Across All Ballot Types
Democrats won the highest share of the vote across all voting methods since Virginia began separating totals for early in-person and mail votes in 2021. This year, votes cast on Election Day, early in person, and by mail all shifted left compared to the five previous election cycles. ow.ly/T0uT5104x0N

➡️Most Localities Reject Tax for School Construction
On Tuesday, 47 localities across Virginia voted on whether or not to impose a 1% sales tax to fund school construction projects, using their newly granted authority from the General Assembly. Only 15 passed the measure. The majority of urban and rural areas voted against the tax, while most small cities and suburban localities supported it. ow.ly/tUBI5104x0L
