Access Federal, State, and Local Election Data

Provides an 'R' interface for downloading and standardizing election data to support research workflows. Election results are published by states through heterogeneous and often dynamic web interfaces that are not consistently accessible through existing 'R' packages or APIs. To address this, the package wraps state-specific 'Python' web scrapers through the 'reticulate' package, enabling access to dynamic content while exposing consistent 'R' functions for querying election availability and results across jurisdictions. The package is intended for responsible use and relies on publicly accessible election result pages.
