Context This is a dataset of all 583 North Carolina County Commissioners. It is current as of June 18, 2018. I took a database of North Carolina candidate listings and manually paired it down to just the current county commissioners. I researched new appointments to vacant seats. Then I cross-referenced the list with the state voter registration database. Content Since the data comes from 2 different sources, I noted, when necessary, when a variable came from the voter registration database (VR) or the candidate listing (CL). A candidate may use a campaign office address, for example, on the candidate listing but use a PO Box and/or home address on their voter registration. VR - data from voting record. CL - information from a FOIA'd candidate listing + manual research Acknowledgements This is a combination of a (https://github.com/Open-NC/Are-We-Represented/issues/6) [dataset of candidate listings that was FOIA-d by Code for America volunteers in North Carolina][1] as well as the public voter registration database made available by the North Carolina State Board of Elections [https://s3.amazonaws.com/dl.ncsbe.gov/data/ncvoter_Statewide.zip][2].
