## CREDIT

The hard work was done by WSJ's Brian McGill ([@brian_mcgill](https://twitter.com/brian_mcgill/)) who **manually crafted** the base cartogram over **days** then translated that into the beautiful and illuminating creation that is the WSJ online delegate tracker: <https://www.wsj.com/graphics/elections/2020/track-the-delegate-count/>.
