# **Data Sources** We collect dates, results, and a myriad of other types of data for elections around the world, at all levels of government. Our information comes from official government websites, non-governmental and intergovernmental organizations, online and print news media, national, subnational, and third-party archives, and government officials directly. We cite all information published and displayed on our website, social media, and other communications and we require citation of the original sources of all data without exception by our users. Failing to cite the original source(s) may result in account termination and additional penalties.
GAEA is based in the United States. Under U.S. law, election dates and facts are in the public domain. Election results, voter registration statistics, candidate information, campaign literature, and other related publicly accessible data are presumed to be in the public domain. This does not apply to sensitive materials prohibited from publication by U.S. national, state, or local laws. GAEA does not publish information if we believe it may be used to cause physical harm to candidates, voters, or election administrators. Due to the complicated legal environment surrounding lists of registered voters, we do not publish individual voter registration data, only aggregated statistics when available.
Below we provide lists of data sources by topic.
