This is the home of the Center for Election Science's universal election dataset.
Election data is stored in .csv format and compiled into a SQLite DB for hosting on Datasette.
To update the Datasette instance on data.electionscience.org, run datasette publish cloudrun ./elections.db --service=elections --install=datasette-vega with the appropriate permissions. Contact @fsargent for more information.
When single winner methods are equivalent to a multi winner method with one seat, the single winner method is not included for simplicity. For example, Approval Voting and Sequential Proportional Approval Voting yield the same first winner with the same methodology, so Approval Voting is not included as a separate example.
- Single Transferable Vote (AKA STV, Proportional IRV, Propotional RCV, Proportional Hare)
Please include both a python version and a notebook version. Notebooks should have completed results so they can be viewed in Github without execution. PRs are welcome.
