There's a more interesting statistic to glean from this graph. It shows the natural multiplier for voting power due to aggregation by state. It's the same effect that causes the Electoral College percentage margin to be much larger than the popular vote percentage margin.
This is a graph I put together after the 2008 election. It shows the electoral votes for the Pub candidate compared to the fractional difference in vote totals between the Pub and the Dem. For example -0.10 corresponds to an election where the Pub got 10% less than the Dem. In the range from -0.10 to +0.10 the points are roughly linear, but for every percent difference between the two candidates there's about a 6% difference in the number of electoral college votes. That's a multiplier of 6.
If I apply the same idea to the recent Senate races, I can compare the Pub margin in popular vote to the Pub margin in seats won.
2008 -9%/-14%
2010 +4%/+32%
2012 -9%/-50%
2014 +8%/+32%
The average multiplier for those four elections is 4.8, which is consistent with the electoral vote data given the smaller statistics for the Senate races. By comparison the multiplier for House races is only 2, due to the smaller size of a House district compared to a Senate district.
