Presenting the Sachse, TX January 2020 Special Election Pre-runoff Results with R

Preface The contents of this blog post originate from the PDF version (https://github.com/robertschnitman/RS_Reports/blob/master/Polls/Sachse/sachse2020.pdf) and its GitBook equivalent (https://rs-sachse2020.netlify.com/). EDIT 2020-03-27: This post has been updated to use flextable instead of kableExtra to produce a cleaner table for HTML. The PDF and Gitbook reports use the latter, as it is better for PDFs. Introduction The purpose of this document is to demonstrate the utility of using the R programming language in reporting polls by walking through the process via the software itself.
