Until then, we plan to post precinct election data as we compile it from additional states. Although the exact data will vary from state to state, most state files contain a MS Excel comma-delimited file along with a readme file that details the contents of the data file. We hope that this site will become an invaluable source for election data for the 2000 elections and thank you for taking the time to visit it. The Department of Government and the School of Public Affairs at American University, particularly Professor Karen O'Connor, helped provide crucial support in initiating this project. We also thank the Center for Presidential and Congressional Studies for helping to bring this bit of American electoral history to the web.
All data is available for download for no charge.
