L2 provides lat / long data and block assignments for many, but not all individuals in the voter file. The L2 lat / long data serves as the basis for geoid20 assignments in this file as the RDH performed a spatial join of the lat / long point file with the 2020 TIGER block shapefile. Following the spatial join, checks were performed to ensure that no duplicate assignments were created because of lat / longs that are on the border of block boundaries. This process assigned 7,733,845 voters to blocks. There were 31,036 voters who we were unable to assign a block due to missing lat / long assingments. These voters are included in this file with the block assignment of "NO ASSIGNMENT". After assigning voters lat / long to census blocks, voter data is grouped by geoid assignment to create this dataset at the block level. Processing was completed using SQL and Python. The RDH cannot certify the accuracy of any of the information contained within this file. ## Additional Notes Please note that when a voter moves, their vote history is moved with them, meaning historical voting data is based on the 4/3/2023 voter file and where those individuals currently live, so it may not represent vote locations at the time of previous elections.
