New ballot files

Submitted by jeff.oneill on Mon, 12/19/2011 - 10:32pm

I've been maintaining a ballots page that has all the publicly available ballot data that I know about from government elections. Recently, I added ballot data for the following elections:

  • San Francisco 2011
  • Pierce County, North Carolina 2009
  • Pierce County, North Carolina 2008

In total, I have ballot data from about 50 elections. I have some other ballot data that I have not yet processed into the ballot data format used by OpenSTV.

Note that I was previously charging for downloads of ballot data, but it is now free and you may do whatever you want with it.
