Project 1: First Term Presidential Election Referendum on Congressional Midterm Elections
As a budding data scientist, my first project will look at the composition of the US Congress (Senate and House) by party in the first year of a presidential term and two years after the election starting with President Ronald Reagan. Β Iβm interested in knowing howΒ the congressional composition changes over time by state (D vs. R) and project what congress could look like for President Trump in two years. Β The impact of congressional changes has a profound effect on the ability of a President to do his job. Β The ramifications of these changes are widespread affectingΒ every American and the world too.
