Open dwillis opened 8 years ago
I've had more luck with pdftotext
than Tabula. Will send a PR with an incomplete parsing script.
I've started working on putting together the 2016 general election results dataset for Utah.
@alicefeng thanks so much! are you willing/available to tackle 2014 as well?
@dwillis you're welcome! I'm likely not going to have as much time the next few months but if you're in no particular rush for the data, I could chip away at it.
@alicefeng no rush at all.
@dwillis I can start working on this today. Is there a particular year that has a higher priority to start with?
@teacupwoozy Thanks! I'd start with the 2014 general election: https://github.com/openelections/openelections-data-ut/issues/5
@dwillis thanks - will do!

Salt Lake County - General Elections for 2018 ;-)
Awesome!!!
Using Tabula, convert county-specific precinct result PDFs into CSV files located in this repository. The CSV file names are set according to our naming conventions; for example, the 2014 Beaver County general election file would be
20141104__ut__general__beaver__precinct.csv
. See our guide for pre-processing this data for more details.Pick a county and list it in a comment below in order to claim it.
