If you want to work on a county, add a comment saying which one you'd like to work on or email openelections@gmail.com. You can either email us finished CSV files or submit a pull request, whatever is easiest.

Primary precinct results files are here:

For electronic PDFs, we recommend using Tabula, which is free, to extract data. The goal is to create a single CSV file for each county, with the following headers:

county, precinct, office, district, party, candidate, votes

For the following offices: President, U.S. Senate, U.S. House, State Senate, State House. You can use the Aurora County file as an example of how things should look.
