[vc_row][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_custom_heading]What’s in this dataset?[/vc_custom_heading][vc_column_text]Precinct-level election returns for the 11/2/2010 and 11/8/2016 elections in Massachusetts. The data include information about county, district, municipality, ward number, precinct number, office name, candidate name, political party, votes, ballot count, write-in votes, ballot order, and candidate district. The 2010 returns also include candidate address.

These data were received from the MA Secretary of State Elections Division on 5/10/2022. Both datasets were renamed. The 2010 election returns were originally received in a pipe “|” delimited txt format and have been reformatted as a csv file. No other changes were made to the data.[/vc_column_text][vc_button button_color=”color-291987″ border_width=”0″ icon=”fa fa-external-link” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2FACLUmass%2FACLUM-Public-Datasets%2Ftree%2Fmaster%2FMA%2520Precinct-Level%2520Election%2520Returns|target:_blank”]Download Data from GitHub[/vc_button][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_column_text border_color=”transparent”]
