Instructions

Use mutate() to add a change column to turnout, which is calculated by as the difference between the turnout in 2018 (turnout2018) and 2014 (turnout2014).
Use plot_geo() and add_trace() to create a choropleth map of the change in voter turnout by state, mapping change to z and state.abbr to locations.
Restrict the scope of the map to the 'usa' using layout().
