For several zipcodes (e.g. https://github.com/EFForg/call-congress/blob/master/call_server/political_data/data/us_districts.csv#L5261)

This data is now quite out of date, doesn't reflect redistricting in 2016, and won't be further updated by Sunlight foundation. I recommend switching to the open data I've compiled from census info and released at https://github.com/spacedogXYZ/us_zipcodes_congress. Minor changes to the parsing code in https://github.com/spacedogXYZ/call-power/commit/eb885d00dcae81bbceec14dcf357db207c5c17bb
