The data set 'Estonian national candidate data 1992-2015' provides information on
the candidates for Estonian parliament between 1992 and 2015. The data set covers
seven national elections and includes such information as the candidate name, gender,
age, education, party membership and also information on the election results, such as
votes for candidates, parties and total votes cast in districts. A full list of variables is
provided below.
The raw data comes from the Estonian National Electoral Committee (www.vvk.ee)
and I would like to acknowledge their help in compiling these data. This data file provides
the information on candidates and election results in a single document. In addition, many
variables, such as incumbency, gender, vote shares, etc. have been added to the original
data made public by the electoral committee.
