This collection contains county-level returns for elections to the offices of president, governor, United States senator, and United States representative for select years. Files contain the total number of votes for each candidate on the ballot and include state and county FIPS codes.
Every month, the UVA data librarian checks the Dave Leip website to make sure we have the most up-to-date files. Versions can change over time (especially in the months following an election). All version changes are documented in the “Update Log” sheet in the Excel file (not the CSV files).
