[OC] The 2026 US House race on a map where all 435 seats get the same area (Cook Political Report ratings, Oct 16)
On the usual district map, size is land: Montana's 2nd district takes up about 7,800 times more of the map than New York's 12th, though each elects one representative. As a result, Republican-favored districts cover 77% of the map's area but are only 46% of the seats.
Here every district gets the same area instead. How it's built:
- Each state is resized so its area is proportional to its number of seats, then a force layout pulls it back toward its real position without overlapping its neighbors.
- Each state is split into equal cells (k-means on random points, then Voronoi cells clipped to the outline), and each cell is matched to the district it's closest to.
Seat by seat, Cook currently has 214 seats favoring Democrats, 200 favoring Republicans and 21 toss-ups. 218 wins the majority, so Democrats need 4 of the toss-ups and Republicans 18.

2015 (Orange Miracle) Alberta election
In 2015 the Alberta NDP formed government for the first time in the parties history, winning a majority thanks to the unpopularity of the Progressive Conservative Party government and the unorganized Wildrose party who had just lost more then half of their caucus to the Progressive Conservative Party in a mass floor crossing, including wildrose party leader Danielle Smith.

[OC] Istanbul's metro network in 2026: 11 lines, about 265 km and 169 stations, most of it opened since 2010
Sources: line data from Metro Istanbul (via Wikipedia's Metro Istanbul article, 2026); map data © OpenStreetMap contributors. Grey line is Marmaray, the commuter rail line under the Bosphorus (opened 2013, full line 2019, 76.6 km), shown for context; it's not counted in the 265 km. Made with Python from OSM geometry.
Opening year of each metro line (first section): M1A 1989 · M2 2000 · M4 2012 · M1B and M3 2013 · M6 2015 · M5 2017 · M7 2020 · M9 2021 · M8 and M11 2023. Four more lines (M10, M12, M13, M14) are under construction. M11, the airport line, is the long one running north, 69 km.
By my own sum of line lengths, about 226 km of this was opened since 2010. The NYU Transit Costs Project puts Istanbul's average at about $140M per km of subway, which is what got me interested. I'm a Turkish infrastructure engineer (water utility) and this map is from a video I made on how the city builds so cheaply; it's my channel, and the narration is an AI clone of my own voice: https://youtu.be/qXV17lD_2g4
If you spot a line drawn in the wrong place or a missing branch, let me know; OSM geometry for lines under extension isn't always clean.
