An updated dataset containing information and statistics of each candidate's performance in every General Election in Malta, starting from 1921 up till present day.
The dataset was originally built by the University of Malta for a project. The dataset can be used for data analysis, mining and extraction. The original version only contained records up to 2013. By using Selenium in Python, a web scraper was written to extract the data out of the Government Electoral Commission Portal and the data was appended to the original dataset. A total of 682 records were added.
The Web Scraping Script can be found in the web_scraping_script folder.
