>> "Orange is disapproval, green/teal is approval."
FYI - orange / blue would work a bit better than orange / green (or teal) for folks who are colorblind. About 8-10% of folks are red-green colorblind. Orange is a good color (because of the yellow) but green looks basically like a shade of red to us, and some folks specifically swap up mid greens and oranges.
I am able to read the graphic okayish, but it really looks like disapproval is a darker shade of the same color to me. Which is fine, it reminds me of color intensity heatmaps, but I'd guess that folks with better color vision are getting more visual information then I am. And from the slider, it looks like the green gets darker with support, so my guess is I'm definitely losing visual info compared to someone with normal color vision.
>> "Notice that most of America is orange or white-ish green."
I think employing approval rating as a stand-in for whether someone is a coalition member is flawed. Plenty of Democrats expressed disapproval of Biden during his Presidency and would have certainly voted for him.
So over 65 white males are still Trumpers. That explains all the old farts showing up at peaceful protests and trying to start trouble.

I'll just take your word for it! :P
Also, orange has a perceived correlation to Trump.
Heard!
This is impressive work. Thank you.

Can you map,the PUMA data onto congressional districts?
Yep, in the works!
