Data Analysis and Scenario Simulation in Electoral Processes 📊
This type of election generates a volume of structured data ideal for analysis. Participation patterns can be modeled by demographic segments and scenarios simulated with variables such as abstention. Visualization tools would allow representing the geographical distribution of the vote, and a time series analysis would compare these results with previous processes, offering a technical perspective on member behavior.
