More worryingly, I don’t think you can meaningfully compare choices with time unless you know the sample size. I saw your map early on and it was a patchwork of colours showing the random response that comes with a low sample size. As more people added their views the map became more homogeneous. I suspect this means that the changes you have noted are not down to change in media attention but variations caused by the sample size rising with time.
