The general idea here is to identify whether there are congressional districts which both contain large swaths of valuable public land resources and have an interesting congressional race going on this November.

  1. Congressional District Boundaries from the Census
  2. Protected Lands from the Protected Planet World Database on Protected Areas
  3. Election outcome forecasts from FiveThirtyEight
