Electoral data for counties in the United States
presidential con congressional races, 1840-1972
by Jerome M. Clubb, William H. Flanigan, Nancy H. Zingale, and Inter-university Consortium for Politica...
This collection contains county-level returns for elections to the United States presidency and to the United States House of Representatives for the years 1840 to 1972. The variables for the presidential vote include the percentages of ballots cast for major and "significant" minor party candidates (with residual votes collapsed into an "other" category), total numbers of votes for all candidates in an election, and estimates of voter turnout in the presidential elections. There are similar variables for the congressional vote except that returns are reported for parties and not for candidates. Congressional district numbers are also reported for each county for every election.
