County rankings of vote change by party

Original 11/7/2014 post, "Dodge County, Wisconsin:  The Case of the Quadrennial Democrats", starts here.

2008-2010 drop in Democratic voter participation:  47% vs. 10.6% for Republicans.
2012-2014 drop in Democratic voter participation:  32% vs. 6% for Republicans.

Walker's vote total increased by 3,319 (15%) in 2014 compared to 2010.  Mary Burke exceeded Tom Barrett's vote total by 25% ,which does nothing to close the gap visually.

2008, 2010, and 2012 election figures from the (soon-to-be-snuffed?) Government Accountability Board.  The 2014 figures are preliminary.
