Presidential Vote and Electoral Count Reports

During the general election in a presidential year, in addition to popular votes, the API provides electoral counts at the state and U.S. national rolled-up summary levels.

Three report types are available:

• Presidential State-by-State Results and Electoral Votes. Presidential state-by-state popular vote results and electoral count for all candidates (major and minor candidates).
• Two types of Presidential U.S. National Rolled-Up Summary reports (XML):
• Presidential U.S. national rolled-up popular vote results and electoral count for all candidates (major and minor candidates).
• Presidential U.S. national rolled-up popular vote results and electoral count for the top major candidates and minor candidates, who are grouped under "Others."
