| findable_steps | Busqué en google la página de JCE; una vez allí busqué en las distintas pestañas, hasta que bajo la pestaña "dependencias" ví una subpestaña denominada "elecciones 2016". Hice click en dicha pestaña y allí encontré varios varios cuadros que dan acceso a descargar los resultados electorales por nivel de elección, pero estos están en PDF. Al final, se encuentra uno denominado "Excel por Colegios". | |

Finding the data requires an extensive effort. Searched for elections results on Google, arrived in a webpage from JGE with the results available as PDFs hosted in ISSUU, downloadable as PDFs files. After that, it required further exploration of the website, to the Dependencias section where we can access the 2016 election results in PDF files. They do have all the required and optional data by electoral zone. By accessing to a new page, which accounts as the portal for electoral data (https://transparencia.jce.gob.do/Repositorio/EntryId/5395) it is possible to download the data as a XLSX files, with data by polling station. Same with past elections (https://jce.gob.do/Dependencias/Elecciones/Elecciones-Anteriores). Submitter also had similar trouble finding the data. License seems to be closed.
