Using the raw election data that I show how to get in my last post, I wrote a script to process the results at a county level. By comparing the numbers to the 2009 Census population estimates (the 2010 actual census results aren't available yet), my script displays the percentage of voter turnout, the county name, and ranks them (highest turnout first).

These numbers are not exact for a couple reasons:
1) The 2009 Census numbers are an estimate
2) From the Census estimate, I use the number of residents in a county over the age of 18. For various reasons, not all of the residents over 18 may actually be eligible to vote.

I am assuming that the margin of error caused by these issues is consistent enough across the counties that the results generated by the script still give a good representation of the exact numbers.
