The Face of Modern US Politics

Sure this is a bit of clickbait but IMO it does illustrate the gender and racial imbalance in US politics (though I doubt whether one done in the UK would be much different).

Researchers have fed all the pictures of House and Senate members into a face blending algorithm at the result looks like, well, pretty much what I'd imagine a politician to look like, white, male and middle-aged.

IMO the more serious point is that although diversity in Congress is improving, it still lags well behind diversity in the US population as a whole.
