Some notes on contributing to the OpenElections project by @dwillis.bsky.social – I did a few rounds of contributions to MI & PA 2024 election data early last year and we’re about to have another national mid-term elections. How can we get ahead of the new PDFs? medium.com/@michalmigur...

The @nytimes.com just posted an updated version of their detailed map of the 2024 election results, with the data available for download. This is invaluable in part because funding constraints have slowed down academic efforts at releasing precinct-level results. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Do we know anyone who lives near Karnes County, Texas, and would be willing to go to the county clerk's office in Karnes City, fill out a form and pay $10 in cash for precinct-level election results? Because that's what they've told us needs to happen.
