The project aims to be an aggregator for election information in Romania. The project will contain historic information for elections in Romania, will contain real time results for each election, as it will parse results published by BEC (Biroul Electoral Central) and it will also contain information about the budgets spent during the electoral campaign.
The partial results published by BEC (Biroul Electoral Central) are often raw results that are not easily interpreted and give no meaningful information to regular users. The aim of the project is to aggregate the raw data and provide timely updates on the progression of voting results in Romanian elections.

This project is built by amazing volunteers and you can be one of them! Here's a list of ways in which you can contribute to this project.
You can also list any pending features and planned improvements for the project here.
C# 7
.NET Core 2.2
NuGet
- Amazon S3 Storage
- Amazon DynamoDB
TBD
- .NET Core 2.2 (backend)
- AWS CLI
- NodeJS (frontend)
- Docker (for running localstack or the API on local machine)
cd localstack.\setup.cmd- this will use the docker-compose file to pull and run the localstack image
- after that it will add two settings called
electionsConfigwhich is the list of elections andintervalInSecondswhich is the background task run interval
cd src\ElectionResults.WebApiBesides Visual Studio or VS Code, you can use the command line or Docker to start the project- Using the dotnet CLI
dotnet run
- Running the Docker image
docker build --rm -f "src\Dockerfile" -t rezultatevot:latest "src" --build-arg asp_env=Developmentdocker run --rm -it -p 443:443/tcp -p 80:80/tcp rezultatevot:latest
In appsettings.{environment}.json you'll find the following settings:
- bucketName: "code4-presidential-2019"
- the name of the bucket where CSV files are downloaded
- tableName: "electionresults"
- the name of the DynamoDB Table where the JSON statistics are stored
- specifies how much information should appear in the AWS logs
If you run the project on your local machine, you can also modify the file localstack\config.json before running localstack\setup.cmd
- PUT request on /api/settings/election-config with a JSON representation of a list of Election objects. This will overwrite the json from AWS Parameter Store.
- Each Election object has:
- a list of candidates where information about them can be provided(candidate picture, name, CSV column id, etc.)
- a list of BEC URLs, each file has the type of results(provisional, partial or final), location(Romania or Diaspora), URL
- An initial configuration is provided in the file
localstack\config.json
cd tests\ElectionResults.Testsdotnet test
