I am currently researching civic data sources for a platform that retrieves U.S. election (Especially Texas State) and ballot information based on a user’s address. At this stage, we are evaluating different providers to understand what election-related datasets are available through APIs.
Civic Data APIs should provide access to:
Ballot measure information
Election data tied to a voter’s address or jurisdiction
Contest or ballot item details for specific elections
We are currently in the early research phase and are gathering information about available data sources.
If anyone has experience building systems that use U.S. election or ballot APIs, I would really appreciate guidance, recommendations, or examples of providers/datasets that worked well.
