New Free Public Dashboard Highlights Projections for Upcoming 2012 Presidential Election
El Dorado Hills, CA, April 13, 2012 --(PR.com)-- VisualCalc, a provider of web-based analysis software and the creator of PublicDashboards.com (www.PublicDashboards.com), today announced the introduction of the Election 2012 Dashboard, a new free public dashboard that provides a graphical, easy-to-understand view into projected results and polling data for the upcoming U.S. 2012 Presidential elections.
The Election 2012 Dashboard contains four graphical indicators, each focused on a different aspect of the upcoming election:
· GOP Delegate Tracker – provides the last delegate totals for each of the remaining GOP candidates, and compares this against the 1,144 delegates required to secure the GOP nomination.
· GOP National Primary Projections – tracks projected Republican primary votes over time for each of the major candidates.
· Generic Congressional Ballot – shows, on average, if voters would vote for the Republican or Democrat candidate in their district’s congressional race.
· Obama vs. GOP Candidates – highlights the most recent projections of how President Obama would fare against each of the major Republican candidates.
The Election 2012 Dashboard highlights some surprising trends and statistics associated with the U.S. 2012 election, such as:
· Mitt Romney is currently projected to secure the most GOP national primary votes at 39%. This is an increase from December 1, 2011, when Romney was projected to gain 17% of the primary votes, the second most after Newt Gingrich. Over the same time period, Gingrich as fallen from 38% to 17% of the projected votes, while Rick Santorum has increased his projected vote from 4% to 27%.
· If the election were held today, projections have President Obama defeating every GOP candidate. Out of the remaining GOP candidates, the closest to Obama is Romney, who trails 44.3% to 48.1%. Obama has the largest projected lead over Gingrich: 51.0% versus to 38.0%.
“The 2012 Presidential Election is extremely dynamic, and front runners seem to change on a daily basis,” said Amit Mazumdar, CEO of VisualCalc. “This dashboard helps the public easily decipher some of the dynamic changes that are taking place over the course of this important election.”
This new dashboard will be incorporated into VisualCalc’s public dashboard website: PublicDashboards.com, and can be accessed directly at www.publicdashboards.com/Election2012.
