}A tool that generates real world political networks from user provided lists of politicians and news sites. Presented as my Master's Thesis for the Masters in Innovation and Research - Data Mining at the UPC in Barcelona. See http://whoyouelect.com/texas for the thesis document, presentation, and visualizations. More detailed explanation/docs for code coming soon though generally speaking the initial setup of politicians and sites to use along with the creation of the graphs themselves takes place in the "generate-network" folder while the website and visualizations is in "whoyouelect.com"
