Nationwide coverage & sources

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.

Texas county audit: positions, officials & every election on file

Elected-office inventory · NC

192 documented seats in our partial inventory. Complete elected-seat total: still being established.

960 independent local governments and 174 dependent school systems in the Census discovery list, dated June 30, 2025. Government units are not elected seats. Appointed boards and overlapping districts require individual checks.

Shared offices count once in the overall inventory. County figures include documented shared offices and cannot be added together. The inventory includes source dates from 2026 and is not a complete current roster.
