A Visual Comparison of Votes for Two Carbon Tax Initiatives

Washington State voters were presented two different carbon tax initiatives in the General Elections of 2016 and 2018. A full comparison of both proposals is here. While neither passed, I was curious how the Yes vote looked for both Initiatives.
