Contains data used to supplement the creation and coding of ces data:

• HSall_members.csv (The data with everything)
• bio_matched.csv Has the data with the bioguide IDs added from HSall_members.csv which was coded automatically and then hand coded to create matched_with_all.csv
• matched_with_all.csv was processed, by hand, to identify each unique candidate and give them a unique ID. This is necessary as there are sometimes name changes or district changes. If there are any issues the results probably start here.
• matched_with_all_old.csv A previous version (pre July 1 2025) which was created using some incorrect district numbers. It didn’t impact the actual data creation at the time as the district numbers were not used.
