UK Parliament election results, now with Datasette. The House of Commons Library maintains a website of UK parliamentary election results data, currently listing 2010 through 2019 and with 2024 results coming soon.
The site itself is a Rails and PostgreSQL app, but I was delighted to learn today that they're also running a Datasette instance with the election results data, linked to from their homepage!
The raw data is also available as CSV files in their GitHub repository. Here's their Datasette configuration, which includes a copy of their SQLite database.
