Councils with local council elections for data scraping #5

Open James-SR opened 7 years ago

James-SR commented 7 years ago

There are three files or levels to collect as shown in the data dictionary link below - candidate, ward and council. Help on any number of levels for a particular area appreciated.

Once data collection for a particular area has started, please add a note listing the council your working on to the 'data assigned' column.

Data should follow the (currently draft) data dictionary and files be uploaded to the data-raw folder for checking/QA.

Please note - refused ballot numbers are not published by all councils and may require a Freedom of Information request to obtain - they will be published eventually so we can wait if your struggling finding them.
