I was curious whether the controversial Wisconsin election on Apr 7 had a material impact on whether people were sheltering-in-place or not.

y axis shows percent of people staying home.
Very preliminary analysis, but maybe there is an usual dip down in the milwaulkee county on Apr 7th.

Has anyone else been looing into this? This could benefit from a rigorous statistical analysis.

Great work Ryan! I wonder which file did you use for this plot?

@Ryan_Fox_Squire_SafeGraph Very cool! A few friends and I have actually been trying to put something on this exact topic. We’re submitting a pre-analysis plan today, as much of the data are not yet available. I’ll let you know as soon as it’s out.

@Selena_Wang_Ohio_State this comes from the social distancing metrics dataset. I calculate completely_at_homr devices / device_count to get % staying home.

@Ed_Rubin_University_of_Oregon please do let me know, sounds very interesting
