Imagine for a moment that it's 2:30 AM London time on November 5th and like me, you've stayed up late to watch the US elections. Six states have been called so far: Vermont and Virginia for Obama, and Indiana, Georgia, South Carolina and Kentucky for McCain. You go to my election page and see this diagram:



Does it make sense to you? How could I improve it?

thanks!

Update: wow, a flood of very helpful comments, thanks so much, keep them coming!

There are two other ways it's indicated in the chart: white lines separate the called from the uncalled, and a lower bar is followed by a higher bar. However, from several comments here it sounds like a stronger indicator is needed...

Ah, the lines didn't quite match up with what you said, and I wasn't sure if they were just noise, perhaps make them more definied.

It was the Oklamhoma on the right that you didn't mention being included that was which confused me.
