By state

These counts measure what has been crawled, not what Malaysia is reading. Coverage is gathered seat by seat, so a state that has come round in the crawl order recently sits far above one that has not — Johor is 30% of all seat mentions for that reason alone. Read the grid as this index's progress, never as news volume.
