Data and methodology

Read how each state is reviewed, what the statuses mean, and the limits of this work in the methodology. The dataset is free to download. It contains only entries that passed our publish check; states shown as under review carry no status.

Data version 1.0 · October 2026. Only North Carolina has a records audit of its districts; it is kept on its own site as a case study.
