What is the Data Source?

The data for this project came exclusively from issues of the Gila River Indian News

Why did I do this Project?

Voting and civic engagement are some of the most important parts of society in a democracy! Voting is a core way to create policy change, and I wanted to track how our Community voting habits change over time. I also wanted to help create a database that tracks who is getting engaged in the political process and track changes in leadership over time.
