Rejected submission since not all required data is available. Data available (https://www.eld.gov.sg/elections_past_results.html / https://data.gov.sg/dataset/presidential-election-results) in Presidential elections 2011, Parliamentary elections 2015 and Parliamentary By-elections 2016 results only represent results for major electoral contests. On the data.gov.sg site it is possible to see major results by constituency, and results are machine-readable and formatted for easy reuse. Submitter notes that previously, the information was available only on the webpage of the Singapore Elections Department (https://www.eld.gov.sg/) in HTML format, which required users to scrape and reformat before they could use the data. The process to find the data it’s pretty straightforward. As submitter notes, in Singapore, number of votes at constituency level is equivalent to that at polling station level.
