Bulk Downloads
Every canonical result row — national, county, and district level — across all digitized elections, with source citations on every row.
Registered voters, ballots cast, and valid/invalid vote counts per geography and election.
Files are generated live from the database, so they always include the latest additions. The results CSV uses the same column layout accepted by our import tooling — corrections can round-trip back to us in the same format.
Where the Data Comes From
Liberia has no single official database of election results. This archive is independently digitized from official National Elections Commission (NEC) results publications — county and electoral-district tally PDFs — and cross-checked against independent records such as international observer reports.
Every number in the database links back to the specific document it was transcribed from. When two sources disagree, we keep both figures, display the best-supported one, and flag the conflict for review rather than silently overwriting either.
Found an error, or have a source we're missing? We treat corrections as first-class contributions — email [email protected], ideally with a link or copy of the source document.
