Overview

About

Maintained by G. Elliott Morris3 releasesCRAN page ↗

Provides useful functions for obtaining commonly-used data in political analysis and political science, including from sources such as the Comparative Agendas Project https://www.comparativeagendas.net, which provides data on politics and policy from 20+ countries, the MIT Election and Data Science Lab https://www.electionlab.mit.edu, and FiveThirtyEight https://www.FiveThirtyEight.com.

Install

R (source archive)openSUSE (OBS)

url <- "https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/politicaldata/politicaldata_0.1.3.tar.gz"
pkgFile <- "politicaldata_0.1.3.tar.gz"
download.file(url, pkgFile)
install.packages(pkgFile, type = "source", repos = NULL)

This package is no longer on CRAN, so install.packages() cannot fetch it by name. This downloads the last archived source (0.1.3) and builds it locally. Install its dependencies first, and note that building from source needs the usual compiler toolchain.

# add the autoCRAN OBS repo (Tumbleweed) if it is missing, then install
