Question

4. The map below shows the total dollar amount received for each tax dollar sent by county in Washington State in 2010. A researcher argues that: (i) Generally, counties receiving more revenue from the state than they had sent (as measured by the total dollar amount received for each tax dollar sent) tend to be those which voted for Republican. (ii) More importantly, he believes that those receiving far higher revenue per tax dollar sent i.e. $1.5 (as shown in the map) tend to be "deep red" counties (which voted 61-70% for Republican). You have decided to find out if (ii) above is true by performing a statistical test. Show your method and calculations. Revenue/Expenditure Disparities by County in 2010
