Philly election results look a bit friendlier in Google charts

A rare feat of turnover in a Philadelphia municipal election Tuesday led to a visit or two to the unofficial online results that are updated by the City Commissioner’s office.
One developer decided to visualize the results, if only in the most basic fashion: Google charts. But Technically Philly has to point out that Joseph Russell, 27, is barking up the wrong tree.
See his basic charts here.
The one major citywide race he didn’t chart? The city commissioners and, well, yesterday’s election brought in two new faces to the board — Democrat Stephanie Singer and Republican Al Schmidt — both of whom have expressed interest in drastically updating that office’s web presence, through realtime data and visualizations. Make it happen.
Russell, a Rowan University alumnus who grew up in South Jersey, actually lives in Massachusetts, where he moved in 2009 with his girlfriend who took a job in Watertown. He works for Lycos on the WYSIWYG site editor at Tripod.com, but Philly and civic web work still have his heart.
