Why some familiar fields are missing
Missing is safer than wrong.
The government JSON export gives winner and runner-up columns the same machine names. That causes the later runner-up values to overwrite the winner's party, symbol, category, gender, and vote total. Election.org does not publish those ambiguous fields here.
This page is a historical result record. It does not claim that the elected person still holds office or is standing in a future election.
