MANCHESTER, NH – As interactive maps go, this one can be a little addictive.
Just for fun – or also maybe to get a visual on where support is strongest for rail and where state reps who are against rail congregate – Manchester resident Ed Staub took the March 10 vote on Commuter Rail and mapped the results.

His map displays the recorded NH House of Representatives vote on Floor Amendment #2016-0941h, which removed funding for the Capitol Corridor passenger rail project from HB 2016. Its primary purpose is to allow citizens to quickly see how their representatives voted. Just click through to this link and hover your mouse over any area to see how the state reps for that district voted.*
[Red zones voted down the measure, green zones favored rail.]
*For simplicity, floterial district representatives are shown as if they were members of all constituent districts within the floterial. For this reason, adding together the votes from multiple districts may be invalid, since floterial votes may be counted more than once.
