A cutting-edge interactive dashboard that provided comprehensive coverage of the 2025 Malawian elections. The platform delivered real-time election results as they were announced, featuring advanced data visualizations, interactive maps, and detailed breakdowns at national, regional, district, and constituency levels. The dashboard became the primary source for election information, handling millions of requests during the election period while maintaining exceptional performance and accuracy.
