Track what is on file and what still needs research, county by county. Geographic coverage, imported records and verified civic coverage are separate milestones.
Counts apply only to each named jurisdiction. Source assessments cover their stated offices and election dates; an assessment never establishes completeness for every office serving a county. Zero records means coverage is pending.
Coverage is built county by county. See which counties and county-equivalents in Michigan we don't have officials or candidates for yet, with counts by state and a CSV download.
