Question

Which would be the best title for this graph?

The Race for President, 2008
Voter Turnout, 2008-2012
Percentage of Voting, 2008-2012
Voter Turnout by Income Group, 2008

Answer 1

I can’t see the graph — can you tell me what the axes and series show (variables and time span)? That will let me pick the best title.

Quick guide so you can choose now:
- If the chart compares vote shares or the two candidates in the 2008 presidential race → "The Race for President, 2008".
- If the chart shows turnout levels over the years 2008–2012 → "Voter Turnout, 2008–2012" (clearer than “Percentage of Voting”).
- If the chart shows percentages of people who voted over 2008–2012 (a time series of percentages) → also use "Voter Turnout, 2008–2012".
- If the chart compares turnout by income brackets for 2008 → "Voter Turnout by Income Group, 2008".

If you paste or describe the graph I’ll pick the best one for you.
