Coding rules

  • Only elections to 1st or "lower" legislative chambers are considered. Presidential elections and elections to 2nd chambers are not included in Elections Global.
  • Data is reported valid as of December 31st of a given year. In rare cases where more than one election took place in a given year, earlier elections are not included.
  • Whenever possible, the exact date is reported. In some cases only the year and month could be identified, while in a few cases only the year could be determined.
  • For further coding rules see the codebook of Döring and Düpont 2020.
