Title:	Ballot-Level Microdata and Summaries for Ecological Inference (Florida 2000)
Version:	0.2.0-1
Description:	Provides access to ballot-level electoral microdata from the Florida 2000 general election and tools for computing summaries suitable for ecological inference. Includes functions to load data by county or race (election), compute marginal distributions at the precinct level, and build joint contingency arrays across multiple races for use with ecological inference packages. Data files are stored in a remote repository and downloaded on demand; local copies are supported via the 'data_dir' option. Acknowledgements: We thank Jaime Ventura (ANES, University of Michigan) and Dan Keating (The Washington Post) for providing the raw data that serve as the starting point for the construction of this package. We also acknowledge funding from the Conselleria de Educación, Cultura y Universidades (grant CIACIO/2023/031).

For partisan races, D = Democratic candidate, R = Republican candidate and O = candidate from another party. In some races, however, these codes may have a different meaning (e.g., candidate initials) and should be interpreted according to the coding of the specific race (see election_catalog).

For referendums, Y = yes and N = no.

Voting-code conventions:

NA in a race column means that the voter was not eligible to vote in that race. A = blank vote (it also includes write-in votes, which are not recorded on the ballot images); I = invalid vote.

For partisan races, D = Democratic candidate, R = Republican candidate and O = candidate from another party. In some races, however, these codes may have a different meaning (e.g., candidate initials) and should be interpreted according to the coding of the specific race (see election_catalog).

For referendums, Y = yes and N = no.

Eligible voters and precincts by race:

Load the full microdata for a county object

Description

Calls get_county_data() using the county code stored in the object. This is the data counterpart to county_meta(): it converts the lightweight metadata object into the full voter-level data.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'county'
as.data.frame(x, ..., source = NULL)

Arguments

Details

To avoid specifying source in every call, set options(data_dir) once at the start of your session or in your .Rprofile:

options(data_dir = "~/my_data/")   # local files
# or leave unset to use the online OSF repository

Value

A data.frame with one row per voter.

See Also

county, county_meta(), get_county_data()

Examples

lee <- as.data.frame(Lee)

The county class

Description

A county object is a lightweight metadata summary for a single county's ballot data file. It does not contain the microdata itself (one row per voter); it only stores precomputed statistics about that county's races, used to build help pages and to give a quick overview before downloading the full dataset.

Details

One such object exists per county (e.g. Lee), stored as a small package data object. Use county_meta() to retrieve one by county code, or get_county_data() / as.data.frame() to load the actual microdata.

Structure

A county object is a named list with the class attribute c("county", "list") and the following elements:

county

Character. The county code (e.g. "Lee").

n_voters_total

Integer. Total number of voters (rows) in the county's microdata file, regardless of eligibility in any particular race.

n_precincts_total

Integer. Total number of distinct precincts in the county.

elections

Character vector. Race codes present in this county's data file (a subset of election_catalog).

voters_by_election

Named integer vector. Number of eligible (non-NA) voters for each race in elections.

precincts_by_election

Named integer vector. Number of precincts with at least one eligible voter, for each race.

options_by_election

Named list of character vectors. The vote options observed in the data for each race (candidate codes or combinations, plus "A"/"I" when present).

See Also

Lee, county_meta(), get_county_data(), list_counties(), election_catalog

County catalog

Description

A named list mapping each county data file to the race codes it contains. Used internally to determine which county files must be loaded for a given set of races.

Usage

county_catalog

Format

A named list. Each element is named by the county code (matching the .RData filename without extension) and contains a character vector of the race codes present in that county's file.

Details

The county code is used to construct the filename: county "Lee" maps to Lee.RData. This list is consulted by get_election_data() and ei_summary() to determine which files to load.

See Also

election_catalog, list_counties(), get_county_data()

Examples

# Races available in Lee county
county_catalog[["Lee"]]

# All counties in the dataset
names(county_catalog)

Retrieve county metadata

Description

Returns the county metadata object for a given county. This is the metadata counterpart to get_county_data(): where get_county_data() loads the full microdata (heavy), county_meta() returns the lightweight summary (counts, races, observed vote options).

Usage

county_meta(county)

Arguments

Value

An object of class county. See county for its structure.

See Also

county, get_county_data(), list_counties()

Examples

county_meta("Lee")
county_meta(Lee)      # pass-through: already a county object

Compute ecological inference summaries from ballot microdata

Description

Builds the objects needed for ecological inference over a set of races: marginal distributions per precinct for each race, a joint contingency array across all races and precincts, and its precinct-aggregated versions.

Usage

ei_summary(
  elections,
  data = NULL,
  source = NULL,
  format = c("lphom", "eipack")
)

Arguments

Details

All summaries share a common intersection universe: voters who were eligible to vote in every race in elections (i.e. non-NA in all selected columns). To obtain the full universe of a single race, pass only that race.

Vote codes

In the microdata, "A" denotes a blank vote and "I" an invalid vote; both are included as active categories. NA means the voter was not eligible in that race and defines the universe boundary.

Multi-member races

For races where voters could select more than one candidate (e.g. "HOS3"), each observed combination (e.g. "BauDuf") is treated as an atomic category. See election_catalog for the candidates field listing the individual candidates on the ballot.

Subsetting

Use the [ operator to extract a subset of races from an existing ei_summary object without reloading data:

obj3 <- ei_summary(c("PRE", "USS", "HOS3"))
obj2 <- obj3[c("PRE", "USS")]   # subset to 2 races

Value

An object of class "ei_summary" (a named list) with components:

margins

Marginal distributions per precinct. A named list of data.frames (format "lphom") or a single wide data.frame (format "eipack"). Each data.frame contains columns precinct_id, county_id, n_voters, and one column per vote option. n_voters is identical across all races because the universe is shared.

joint_precinct

Integer array of dimensions ⁠[opt_1 x ... x opt_k x precincts]⁠. NULL when only one race is requested. Summing over any race dimension reproduces the corresponding margin.

joint_total

Same array collapsed over precincts: ⁠[opt_1 x ... x opt_k]⁠. NULL when only one race is requested.

meta

Named list of metadata: elections, counties, n_precincts, n_voters, opt_levels, format, precinct_info, created_at.

If data is NULL and the data cannot be downloaded, a message is shown and NULL is returned.

See Also

ei_summary_random() get_election_data(), get_county_data(), to_lphom(), to_eipack(), list_elections()

Examples

# Using the built-in example dataset
obj <- ei_summary(c("PRE", "USS"), data = example_ballots)
print(obj)
summary(obj)


# Single race: margins only, no joint array
pres <- ei_summary("PRE")
summary(pres)

# Two races: margins + 3-D joint array [PRE x USS x precinct]
obj <- ei_summary(c("PRE", "USS"))
print(obj)
summary(obj)
dim(obj$joint_precinct)

# Three races
obj3 <- ei_summary(c("PRE", "USS", "HOS3"))
dim(obj3$joint_precinct)   # [opts_PRE x opts_USS x opts_HOS3 x n_precincts]

# Wide format for eipack-style packages
obj_wide <- ei_summary(c("PRE", "USS"), format = "eipack")

Compute ecological inference summaries with random voter aggregation

Description

Randomly assigns voters to artificial units and computes ecological inference summaries, ignoring the geographic boundaries of real precincts. This allows assessing how sensitive the results are to the specific way voters are grouped — a concern known in the literature as the Modifiable Areal Unit Problem (MAUP).

Usage

ei_summary_random(
  elections,
  data = NULL,
  source = NULL,
  format = c("lphom", "eipack"),
  n_units = NULL,
  unit_size = NULL,
  size_range = NULL,
  seed = NULL
)

Arguments

Details

The total number of votes for each option is identical to that returned by ei_summary() on the same data — only the distribution of votes across units changes.

The function returns a standard ei_summary object, fully compatible with to_lphom(), to_eipack(), and subset_elections(). The randomisation parameters are stored in meta$random for reproducibility and auditing.

To repeat the randomisation n times (e.g. for a sensitivity analysis), call the function inside lapply(), varying seed each time:

results <- lapply(1:3, function(i)
  ei_summary_random(c("PRE", "USS"), data = d, seed = i))

Value

An object of class "ei_summary" with the same structure as ei_summary(), which contains the components: margins, joint_precinct, joint_total and meta; see ei_summary() for details. To document the randomisation the meta component includes, in addition to the fields elections, counties, n_precincts, n_voters, opt_levels, format, precinct_info, created_at the field random, with the following components:

method

Character string describing the aggregation method used and the resulting unit structure.

n_units

Integer. Number of random units created.

unit_sizes

Integer vector of length n_units. Size (number of voters) of each unit. Always sums to meta$n_voters.

seed

The seed supplied to seed, or NULL if none.

n_units_arg

Value of the n_units argument as supplied by the user.

unit_size_arg

Value of the unit_size argument as supplied by the user.

size_range_arg

Value of the size_range argument as supplied by the user.

Argument precedence

When multiple sizing arguments are supplied simultaneously, they are resolved in this order (highest to lowest priority):

1. unit_size — fixed size per unit; n_units and size_range are ignored with a warning.

2. size_range — random sizes within bounds; if n_units is also supplied, the effective sampling interval is the largest symmetric interval around the required mean (N / n_units) that fits within ⁠[min, max]⁠. The last unit absorbs the residual and may fall slightly outside the effective interval. A warning is issued if the required mean falls outside ⁠[min, max]⁠, in which case all units are assigned approximately equal sizes.

3. n_units — number of units; sizes are drawn proportionally from the real precinct size distribution.

4. Default (no sizing argument) — same number of units as real precincts; sizes match the real precinct size distribution; voters are randomly shuffled across units.

Universe

As in ei_summary(), only voters non-NA in all elections simultaneously are included (the intersection universe). The randomisation is applied to this universe, not to the full dataset. The meta$n_voters field of the returned object always refers to this intersection count.

Relationship to ei_summary()

ei_summary_random() produces an object of the same class and structure as ei_summary(), and is fully compatible with to_lphom(), to_eipack(), and subset_elections(). The only difference is that voters are grouped into random units rather than real (geographic) precincts. To compare random and real aggregations directly, run both functions on the same data object:

d    <- get_election_data(c("PRE", "STS35"))
real <- ei_summary(c("PRE", "STS35"), data = d)
rnd  <- ei_summary_random(c("PRE", "STS35"), data = d, seed = 1)

See Also

ei_summary(), subset_elections(), to_lphom(), to_eipack(), get_election_data()

Examples

# Using the built-in example dataset
obj <- ei_summary(c("PRE", "USS"), data = example_ballots)
print(obj)
summary(obj)


# Default: same number and size distribution as real precincts
obj <- ei_summary_random(c("PRE", "STS35"), seed = 42)

# 200 units with sizes proportional to the real precinct distribution
obj <- ei_summary_random(c("PRE", "STS35"), n_units = 200, seed = 42)

# Fixed size of 500 voters per unit (residual unit if N not divisible)
obj <- ei_summary_random(c("PRE", "STS35"), unit_size = 500, seed = 42)

# Random size between 200 and 800 voters per unit
obj <- ei_summary_random(c("PRE", "STS35"),
                         size_range = c(200, 800), seed = 42)

# 200 units with random sizes between 100 and 1000
obj <- ei_summary_random(c("PRE", "STS35"),
                         n_units = 200, size_range = c(100, 1000),
                         seed = 42)

# Sensitivity analysis: three random aggregations
hig <- get_county_data("Highlands")
if (!is.null(hig))
  results <- lapply(1:3, function(i)
    ei_summary_random(c("PRE", "USS"), data = hig, seed = i))

Election catalog

Description

A named list documenting all races available in the Florida 2000 general election dataset. Each element is named by the election code used as a column name in the county microdata files.

Usage

election_catalog

Format

A named list. Each element contains:

type

Race type: "single_member", "multi_member", or "referendum".

office

Full name of the office or ballot measure.

level

Level of government of the race, following the types of government of the U.S. Census of Governments: "federal", "state", "county", "municipal" (cities, towns and villages) or "special_district" (independent single-purpose districts such as fire, water, hospital or community development districts).

counties

Character vector of county codes/names that include this race, or the string "all" if every county in the dataset participates.

vote_for

Maximum number of candidates the voter could select.

options

Character vector of the codes used in the data: one per candidate or answer (e.g. "Bau", "Duf"), plus, in multi-member races, the combinations of candidates a voter can select (e.g. "BauDuf"), and "A" and "I".

candidates

Character vector of the individual candidates or answers on the ballot (e.g. c("Barrett", "Bauchert", "Berkowitz", "Brown", "Duff", "Abstention", "Invalid vote")).

Details

In the microdata files, votes are recorded as follows:

• A candidate code or combination (e.g. "R", "D", "BauDuf", "Y") for a valid vote cast.

• "A" for a blank vote: the voter was eligible but did not mark a choice in this race. Treated as an active category in all summaries.

• "I" for an invalid vote: the voter's mark(s) was not counted. Treated as an active category in all summaries.

• NA for structural non-participation: the voter was not eligible to vote in this race (e.g. a race restricted to a specific district). NA values exclude the voter from the universe of that race.

The distinction between "A", "I", and NA is critical for ecological inference: only NA values define the universe boundary.

Example ballot-level data

Description

A small simulated dataset used in examples and tests. The dataset contains 100 simulated observations from five simulated precincts in Lee county, with presidential and U.S. Senate vote categories.

Usage

data(example_ballots)

Format

A data frame with 100 rows and 4 variables:

COUNTY

County name.

PRECINCT

Precinct identifier.

PRE

Presidential vote category.

USS

U.S. Senate vote category; may contain missing values.

Source

Simulated data generated for examples.

Load raw microdata for a single county

Description

Reads a county-level .RData file and returns its contents as a data.frame. The data source is resolved in this order:

1. The source argument (if not NULL).

2. getOption("data_dir") (set once with options(data_dir = ...)).

3. The default OSF repository (online).

Usage

get_county_data(county, source = NULL)

Arguments

Details

To avoid specifying source in every call, set options(data_dir) once at the start of your session or in your .Rprofile:

options(data_dir = "~/my_data/")   # local files
# or leave unset to use the online OSF repository

Files downloaded from a remote source are cached for the rest of the R session, so each county is downloaded only once.

Value

A data.frame with one row per voter and columns:

• COUNTY: county code.

• PRECINCT: precinct identifier within the county.

• One column per race on the ballot (see election_catalog for the code-to-office mapping).

If the file cannot be downloaded (e.g. no internet connection), a message is shown and NULL is returned.

See Also

get_election_data(), ei_summary(), list_counties()

Examples

# From the online repository
lee <- get_county_data("Lee")

# From a local directory containing the .RData files
dir <- tempdir()
Lee <- lee
save(Lee, file = file.path(dir, "Lee.RData"))
lee <- get_county_data("Lee", source = dir)

Load raw microdata for one or more races

Description

Determines which county files are needed for the requested races, loads them (downloading if necessary), and returns a combined data.frame with only the relevant columns.

Usage

get_election_data(elections, source = NULL)

Arguments

Details

The counties to load are determined automatically from election_catalog. For races spanning all counties (counties = "all"), every county in county_catalog is loaded. For district-level races, only the relevant counties are loaded.

To avoid specifying source in every call, set options(data_dir) once at the start of your session or in your .Rprofile:

options(data_dir = "~/my_data/")   # local files
# or leave unset to use the online OSF repository

Value

A data.frame with columns COUNTY, PRECINCT, and one column per requested race. Rows from all relevant counties are combined via rbind. Voters not eligible for a given race have NA in that column. If a county file cannot be downloaded, a message is shown and NULL is returned.

See Also

get_county_data(), ei_summary()

Examples

# Presidential and Senate races (all counties)
df <- get_election_data(c("PRE", "USS"))

# Including a district-level race (only counties with that race)
df <- get_election_data(c("PRE", "HOS3"))

List available counties

Description

Returns a data.frame with each county in the dataset and the number of races in its data file.

Usage

list_counties()

Value

A data.frame with columns county and n_elections.

See Also

county_catalog, list_elections()

Examples

list_counties()

List available races

Description

Returns a summary data.frame of the races available in the dataset, optionally filtered by type or level.

Usage

list_elections(type = NULL, level = NULL)

Arguments

Value

A data.frame with columns code, office, type, level, and counties.

See Also

list_elections(type = "referendum")

Print a county metadata object

Description

Displays the schema and summary statistics for the county's ballot data: races present, vote options observed in each race, total voters, precincts, and per-race eligibility counts.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'county'
print(x, ...)

Arguments

Value

The input object x, returned invisibly. Called for its side effect of printing a structured metadata summary to the console.

Print an ei_summary object

Description

Print an ei_summary object

Usage

## S3 method for class 'ei_summary'
print(x, ...)

Arguments

Value

The input object x, returned invisibly. Called for its side effect of printing a structured summary to the console.

Subset an ei_summary to fewer races

Description

Extracts a subset of races from an existing "ei_summary" object without reloading or recomputing from raw data. Vote counts remain exactly as in the original object because the universe is unchanged.

Usage

subset_elections(x, elections)

## S3 method for class 'ei_summary'
x[elections]

Arguments

Details

The [ operator is also available as a shorthand: x[elections] is equivalent to subset_elections(x, elections).

Value

A new "ei_summary" object restricted to elections.

Examples

obj3 <- ei_summary(c("PRE", "USS", "HOS3"))

# Equivalent ways to extract a 2-race subset
obj2 <- subset_elections(obj3, c("PRE", "USS"))
obj2 <- obj3[c("PRE", "USS")]

obj1 <- obj3["PRE"]   # single race: no joint array

Summarise an ei_summary object

Description

Prints aggregate vote totals and percentages for each race, and (when there are exactly two races) the full joint contingency table.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'ei_summary'
summary(object, ...)

Arguments

Value

The input object object, returned invisibly. Called for its side effect of printing aggregate vote totals and the joint contingency table (when two races are present) to the console.

Convert an ei_summary to eipack wide format

Description

Converts the margins element to a single wide data.frame where columns are named ⁠<RACE>_<OPTION>⁠ (e.g. PRE_R, PRE_D).

Usage

to_eipack(x)

Arguments

Value

An "ei_summary" object with margins as a wide data.frame and meta$format == "eipack".

See Also

to_lphom(), ei_summary()

Convert an ei_summary to lphom list format

Description

Converts the margins element to a named list of data.frames (one per race). This is the default format of ei_summary() and the input format expected by lphom and related ecological inference functions.

Usage

to_lphom(x)

Arguments

Value

An "ei_summary" object with margins as a named list of data.frames and meta$format == "lphom".

See Also

to_eipack(), ei_summary()
