Through these maps, it can be noted\u00a0how the boundaries of the districts sometimes\u00a0correlate with the boundaries of the\u00a0townships and municpalities, but most of the time the political district lines are\u00a0not defined solely by the city boundaries.<\/p>\n<p>When looking at the Old Raleigh scale,\u00a0one notices how most of the government buildings are placed close to that of\u00a0the Capitol building. Overall, the movement of the government buildings was not\u00a0drastic and may have had something to do with the expansion of the city. In the\u00a0New Raleigh scale, the North Carolina House Districts seem to subdivide Raleigh into\u00a0several parts. The areas where the NC House district line and the areas where the\u00a0township boundaries intercept create further questions of why this may occur. In the\u00a0Wake County scale, I attempted to create an additional political lens in terms of the\u00a0densities of registered democrats from a 35,000 people sample.<\/p>\n<p>What was noticed\u00a0from the data is the increasing number of registered democrats found in the center\u00a0of wake county. With such a sample size, this data may be skewed depending on\u00a0how random the sample size is. In the triangle scale, the different city boundaries are\u00a0shown with a comparison to the Congressional House district.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SHIFTING GOVERNMENT BOUNDARIES\u00a0THROUGH TIME This\u00a0map series shows the change in Raleigh through a\u00a0series of political lenses from 1792 to present.
