Can I map election results with precincts?

IrvinDe_La_O

Hello everyone,

I want to map a congressional district election result. Can i do it with precincts or can it only be based off zip codes? Also, where can I get the file for precincts to create a layer in the map? This is for an LA County race. I haven't mapped in a while and will appreciate your feedback. Thanks.

Maybe I'm missing something, but I only see PDF precinct maps at that link, which are unusable in ArcGIS. Maybe try some of the links that Sol or I posted. So, you don't have any election result data at all yet? Your original question gave the impression that you had that data by zip code, but you wanted to analyze it across a different boundary. Sometimes it's hard to communicate by text though!

Hi Sephe and Sol,

I gather the precinct election results from this website: Precinct Maps by District.

When I download and open the file, it does not have any FIPS column or anything of that sort. However, It does sort the precinct by number. Will that be enough? I appreciate your help. Thanks.

Like Sephe asks above: where are your election result data coming from?

And, I think you can map these results anyway you need to. What layer contains your election result data?

Irvin, you can get precinct data here: Registrar Recorder Precincts | Los Angeles County GIS Data Portal
