[datameet] Re: State Election data

[Akshi]

Hello,

Could someone help me with finding voter turnout data (AC wise) for the 
recent elections to the 5 states (Excel / PDF format would be sufficient)

Thank you.

Hi Srinivas & Shantanu,

for 2007, 2009 (GE), 2012 and 2014 (GE), I already have the Form 20 for
UP scraped here:

https://github.com/raphael-susewind/india-religion-politics/tree/master/upvidhansabha2007

https://github.com/raphael-susewind/india-religion-politics/tree/master/uploksabha2009

https://github.com/raphael-susewind/india-religion-politics/tree/master/upvidhansabha2012

https://github.com/raphael-susewind/india-religion-politics/tree/master/uploksabha2014

The form 20 for 2017 will be added as soon as it is available. Be
careful as the booth ID codes change between elections (and 2007 has
been pre-delimitation anyway).

Cheers,
Raphael

For UP, there  is Polling Booth wise results available here:
http://ceouttarpradesh.nic.in/Form20.aspx It has data for 2012 assembly
elections and it gives excel sheet for each booth, and processing it might
be easier than parsing PDF. I am not sure if same is available for other
states(I didn't find any such listing for Punjab atleast). If you are using
Linux I was able to get all excel sheets from 403 booths using this shell
script/command:
for i in {1..403}; do wget http://ceouttarpradesh.nic.in/Form20_12/$i.xls;
done

Hi Srinivas,

Electors per constituency data has to be scraped out of the state PDFs at
ECI website. Not sure if anyone's done it already.

Best,
Bhanu

[Srinivas Karuturi]

I was curious about the data and looked at the number of people with voters 
at electoralsearch.in and it gives you the count of people with their names 
and father/husband name along with polling station.

The total records in electoral search and the total electorals on 
eci.nic.in has a difference. The difference is small but there seems to be 
a discrepancy

Is there a way we can pull the number of electors per constituency?

Regards,

Srinivas
