It shows up fine for me.
Nice job, A18. Considering how differently different counties in Virginia have swung or "trended" between certain consecutive Presidential elections and how Virginia itself has swung or trended (relative to the nation-wide swing) between the two major parties (I assume from the text on the maps that the swings and trends are based on county and national percentages of the Democratic + Republican popular vote), it might be interesting for someone to make a map of how the counties have trended between the two parties between consecutive Presidential elections relative to the swing in the two-party vote of Virginia as a whole. That might be a lot more difficult to do, however. If there was a way to do it without calculating a whole bunch of percentages (to get the D+R vote normed to 100% if you know what I mean) and swings and trends v. the state thereof, that would be really vool. That might require a lot of work from Dave in "programming" the site to process that information, however.
