Introduction

The quilt of American democracy is highly varied and complex. Ballotpedia strives to create an intuitive data structure to serve the variety of elections across the country, but it still requires some special terminology and a few unique data structures. This site includes information about API syntax, key concepts, data dictionaries, and some details about common edge cases.

Navigate to either Geographic APIs or Bulk Data depending on your use case to learn more.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to your Ballotpedia sales contact.
