Hardrightconservative Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 Wikipedia is great and I have used it for all my scenarios. Google is fantastic though I have never used the image search! thanks alot for that Kerry-Edwards! For Canadian elections I go to canoe.ca, cbc.ca and www.parl.gc.ca. Or this cool site: http://home.ican.net/~alexng/can.html. When researching candidates positions on the issues I go to www.issues2000.org its a fantastic resource! When obtaining data from countries I go to either Wikipedia or the CIA FACTBOOK. What about books? The Routledge Historical Atlas of Presidential Elections is superb and I really recommend going out and buying it. It covers all US presidential elections, discusses the personalities, issues and Electoral divisons of the time. It only costs $20 US and I seriously recommend getting it if you are interested in US elections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardrightconservative Posted December 28, 2004 Share Posted December 28, 2004 There is also microfilm at the local library which is strenious labour but sometimes worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sven Posted December 29, 2004 Share Posted December 29, 2004 I use Election World or Psephos for election results. Psephos has an enormous collection of Australian data and a substantial amount for other countries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
