In Ohio 59% of the legislators are Republican, however they only spoke 28% of the total words. The opposite happens in Pennsylvania. I agree.

It hints at a degree of state-centrism that is much larger in some states than others. For example CA vs. IA. I also found interesting the difference in party members compared to the ammount that a party spoke. Some parties are much more outspoken than others it seems. Awesome visual data!

Particularly comparing individual representatives. I'm not sure I understand their comparison of California, which has 57 reps, with DC, which has 1 rep. and no vote. There is an obvious reason why one state is first and the other is last. This would be very interesting if it were integrated into Open Congress with live data.
