And I shall be prepared.

It’s a well-kept secret that I always build the automation to generate the election graphs at our local TV station.  They’ll have to convince me to do it again this year, cause it’s a hell of a job in impossible circumstances, but I’ve started R&D already, nevertheless.

Instead of generating the graphs with ImageMagick, driven by a PHP-based web portal (where the live show’s continuity system is also maintained), as I do every year, I’m considering generating Keynote APXL directly and creating graphs as shown below. I’ve got plenty of time to master APXL, as the elections are on June 7.
They’ve finally gone widescreen across the programming, so my graphs will have to be 16:9 too. I’m looking into a replacement for the traditional scan convertor too, in the form of a proper SDI graphics card. Tips are welcome!

Utah-based KBYU TV station attempted this before.
This is what I have so far (generated! not manually edited)
