[edit] Map caption

I don't think it is entirely clear which shade of green is intended to be considered "bold." Distinguishing between light and dark green, I think would avoid any confusion. Or maybe my astygmatism is just kicking in. -- "J-M" (Jgilhousen) 04:46, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

  • I'm fairly certain that the dark green counties are the ones that voted for the measure by a 2/3 margin and are thus labeled "bold green." I concur with your assessment, though; I only knew which shade was considered to be "bold" because of a general familiarity with Oregon political demographics. The phrases "light green" and "dark green" would be more understandable. —NathanDahlin 21:44, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
    • I went ahead and changed the caption to "bright green" and "dark green" per this discussion. —NathanDahlin 03:42, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
