Open State Foundation believes that the Central Elections Council needs to open and publish more data on the process of the elections. Only recently it opened up election results data but for example lists of candidates and other information necessary for the elections, such as locations of voting are not always available as open data. We want to change that. Below you&#8217;ll find information, data and examples of what could be done.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"#programmas\">Party programmes<\/a> | <a href=\"#kandidaten\">Candidates<\/a> | <a href=\"#stemlocatie\">Voting locations<\/a> | <a href=\"#twitter\">Politwoops<\/a> | <a href=\"#data\">Data<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"stemlocatie\"><\/a><\/h3>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><a name=\"stemlocatie\"><\/a><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><a name=\"stemlocatie\"><\/a><\/h3>\n<h3>Voting locations<\/h3>\n<p>Only 7 out of 388 municipalities publish voting locations as open data. The disclosure of these locations helps voters to find their way on election day. Below we have harvested data on actual voting locations from 388 municipal websites. The information comes in various ways and formats (ie. PDF files, screenshots, maps). We have added geometry, municipalities and name of voting district.<\/p>\n<p><embed src=\"\/\/nl.batchgeo.com\/map\/25df0b0c498f604c511bbd8b673d42fc\" width=\"100%\" height=\"550\"><\/embed><\/p>\n<p><small>Bekijk <a href=\"\/\/nl.batchgeo.com\/map\/25df0b0c498f604c511bbd8b673d42fc\">Stembureaus Tweede Kamerverkiezingen 2017<\/a> op volledig scherm.
