If you want to work on a county, add a comment saying which one you'd like to work on or email [email protected]. You can either email us finished CSV files or submit a pull request, whatever is easiest.

You'll find 2014 results files you'll be converting in some of the county-specific folders in the NY sources repository. Many of these are either PDFs or Excel files, and in some cases you'll need to convert a number of office-specific files. For electronic PDFs, we recommend using Tabula, which is free, to extract data. The goal is to create a single CSV file for each county, with the following headers:

county, precinct, office, district, party, candidate, votes

For the following offices: Governor, Comptroller, Attorney General, U.S. House, State Senate, State Assembly. Since NY reports separate candidate-and-party totals, you should list each combination of candidate and party on a separate line. You can use the Herkimer County file as an example of how things should look.

In New York, the concept of a precinct is often called an "election district," so if the file says "district" or "election district," use that as the precinct.
