Every election we are showing

31 elections currently listed. All of them were refreshed in the last day and a half.

How the update works

Every morning at 05:17 UTC an automated job asks Democracy Club for every election now open, writes what it finds here, and records the time against each one. It also looks for new campaign leaflets and candidate photos. If a single election cannot be fetched, the job stops with an error rather than quietly dropping it, and that election would appear in the list above.

Times are shown in UTC, which is the same as UK time in winter and one hour behind British Summer Time. Sourced positions are added by people, not by the nightly job, so that row moves less often and a gap there is normal. The code that does all this is open source, and every change to a published claim is listed in the public ledger.
