The 20th presidential election is over.
People's Power President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol was elected president after defeating Democratic Party candidate Lee Jae-myung, who received 16,147,738 votes with 16,394,815 votes nationwide.
The gap between the two candidates was 247,077, the smallest in the history of the presidential election.
The SBS data journalism team <Careful Action> visualized the vote rates of the first and second place candidates by city, county, and gu nationwide on a national map so that you can see at a glance the situation of the 20th presidential election, which was held in an all-time ultra-thin fight.
Unlike the previous maps, where only the top candidates by city, county, and district could be seen, this map shows the votes.
Since the city/gun/gu has been reconstructed with the same area to prevent distortion according to the area, there may be a difference from the actual location.
In the Honam region, candidate Lee Jae-myung's vote rate overwhelms President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol.
On the other hand, in Yeongnam and Gangwon regions, President-elect Yoon Seok-yeol has a higher percentage of votes.
In the Chungcheong area and the Seoul metropolitan area, there are many areas of close combat within 3%p.
In this presidential election, there are 29 regions in which the difference between the 1st and 2nd places in the votes is less than 3%p.
Gyeonggi-do had the most with 9, followed by Seoul with 8.
Of the 29, Yoon Seok-yeol won 10, and Lee Jae-myung 19.
Within 1%p, there are 7 areas in close contact: Seodaemun-gu, Seoul, Michuhol-gu, Daejeon, Daedeok-gu, Ulsan Buk-gu, Suwon-si, Yeongtong-gu, Gyeonggi-do, Hanam-si, Gyeonggi-do, and Heungdeok-gu, Cheongju-si, Chungcheongbuk-do.
