Unfortunately, last time it was posted, it was noted that that map has drawing bias. The dots are drawn in order of race, not randomly, and so the earliest color dots are underrepresented and the later dots overrepresented. I'm afraid I can't remember the which order they are drawn in. Just something to keep in mind.

You're definitely right, that would skew things. [0] https://github.com/unorthodox123/RacialDotMap/blob/master/dotfile.py https://github.com/unorthodox123/RacialDotMap/blob/master/do...
