Current county release changes
The release log describes user-visible data and contract changes, not just code changes.
- Completed canonical FIPS joins for every available county and county-equivalent presidential row in 2016, 2020, and 2024.
- Added permanent county profiles, national comparison APIs, confidence classifications, and a reproducible bulk release bundle.
- Preserved Alaska as source-unavailable county geography rather than manufacturing county totals from non-comparable reporting units.
- Alaska reports election results through election districts and precinct/reporting units that do not provide a reviewed county-equivalent crosswalk for these years; its 30 Census county equivalents remain unavailable.
- Maine UOCAVA and Rhode Island Federal Precincts are intentional non-geographic historical rows and are excluded from county comparisons.
- Connecticut 2016 and 2020 values are derived current-geography aggregates from official town rows to the nine planning regions adopted as Census county equivalents in 2022; they are not totals reported by those planning regions in those elections.
- Turnout, equipment, vote-method, advisory, and administrative context have different reporting grains and should not be assumed to cover every county.
