I'd rather not insult your intelligence, but I could not help but notice that the 2015-2017 portion has not been added to the image. 49.200.127.180 (talk) 16:38, 16 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I just now saw your post. You might be pleased to know that the image has now been updated.
I'm not sure what it might have to do with my intelligence. Anybody could have done the update. It didn't require any special software. I did the edit manually using GIMP freeware.--ChrisfromHouston (talk) 23:13, 5 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Why is this chart so inconsistent?[edit]

Why aren't there gray blocks when there is no majority? Or is it supposed to be who has speaker? Why are the two parties applied back to 1855 without any mention of the significant flip-flop of liberal/conservative spectrum? Why are the red boxes larger than the blue boxes (for the percentages)? Why are red boxes horizontal and blue boxes are 45 degrees rotated (like a diamond)? There are date ranges as labels that are skipping 1 year and others that skip 2 years. Without lines, it's very hard to tell which years correspond to which blocks. Why not just list election years instead of ranges?

Overall, not a very reliable chart. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 73.217.55.186 (talk) 18:29, 12 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
