I love building websites that answer simple questions.

I knew I'd be asking this question a lot over the next few days, so this morning I built:
howmanypeoplevoted.com

Many thanks to @ElectProject for the data!

Post coming soon!

Wrote up a little about the process here:

I posted to @IndieHackers about using questions on your mind to get ideas for projects!

Added the number of voters by state. Wasn't sure what colors to use, so I got some input my from daughter!

Which do you prefer? ImageImageImage
Poll:
Based on the reply from @tamiz giving the Red/Blue thing a try too.

The color is based on who won the most votes in 2016.

The shade is based on how close the count is it to the 2016 numbers. Image
The new Google Analytics interface is gonna take a bit of getting used too, but thanks to the 100+ people that visited today! Image
Decided share the site on @ProductHunt, would love for you to leave review:

Very interesting new views of realtime data for @googleanalytics Image
Excited to have @adammarx13 join me in improving the project over the coming days!

The daily number aren't updating very often, so not sure how many people have visited, but the realtime number has been consistently around 20 visitors since this morning. Image
Made it to the show page on HackerNews:

Thought it might interesting to consider the trend in recent Presidential elections, so import some older data. Image
Holding steady in 8th spot on the ProductHunt leaderboard.

Wasn't sure how popular election stuff would be there 🤔 Image
🔥 Always nice to see a site I built on a site I built 😀

Think we're starting to get a nice little hug from Hacker News.

Will be interesting to see how the $5/month server holds up. Image
Figured I should check my Lighthouse score since the traffic is pretty steady at 100+ visitors now and pleasantly surprised 😀 Image
Latest Realtime Google Analytics (been steady around here for the last hour) Image
Added some estimates for potential voters in the current election: Image
Some kind soul posted the site to the InternetIsBeautiful subreddit, think this accounts for the bulk of the traffic today:

reddit.com/r/InternetIsBe…
Actually remembered to add the new site to my portfolio for a change 😂

Found out who submitted the site to Reddit, they prefer to stay anonymous, so I'll just say thank you! You're the best!
This morning, we've been featured on @OnePageLove:

Full stats from yesterday coming up next.
