gg_survey: Plot voter shares observed in one survey

Description

Bar chart of the raw voter shares observed in one survey. Additionally to plotting positive voter shares, the function can be used to plot party-specific differences (e.g. between a survey and the election result), including negative numbers.

Usage

gg_survey(data, colors = NULL, labels = NULL, annotate_bars = TRUE, hurdle = 5)

Arguments

data

Scraped dataset containing one row per party in the column party and the observed voter share in the column percent

colors

Named vector containing party colors. If NULL (default) tries to guess color based on party names, gray otherwise.

labels

Named vector containing party labels. If NULL (default) tries to guess party names from data.

annotate_bars

If TRUE (default) bars are annotated by the respective vote share (percentage).

hurdle

Hurdle for single parties to get into the parliament, e.g. '5' for '5%'. If set to NULL no horizontal line is plotted. The horizontal line can be suppressed using NULL.

Examples

library(tidyr)
library(dplyr)
