An API for retrieving locally-relevant structured data about US elections.
This API was originally created for ACLU Voter and was subsequently used by Vote Smart Justice. Is currently used by scorecards.
The pip (point-in-polygon) endpoint provides most of the details available from the API.
$ curl -s 'https://elections.api.aclu.org/v2/pip?lat=40.7023699&lng=-74.012632' | python -mjson.tool
