Using the power query editor, we cleaned the data, which means we made sure it was neat and ready to be analyzed. We dealt with the inconsistency with the data type, check the column quality and distribution to ensure everything is okay.
With the data in Power BI dashboard area, we started analyzing it to find interesting patterns and created visual charts to show these patterns clearly. These visuals help understand things like which candidate, political party, geo-political zone has most of the vote. We made use of the slicer tool to compare candidate performance and how the candidate perfom accoding to geo-politicial zones. We also made use of Card tool to show total number of state, local government area, vote per candidtate etc.
