Rar file should contain the same info. The 2020-11-03 is the date of the race, not the date of the data which is in the Meta.Timestamp(Meta) field. The internal json includes the updates and also the 2012 and 2016 summaries. Inside the json there is a json object: Votes2016 (Data.Races.Counties), thought it looks like the totals by county, not the timeseries.
Anyways, that github looks like an easier way to extract the data, so it looks like you are on the right track.
I was looking for that too. I think github does have some historical vote data--number of votes not number of registered. I think the registered voter counts need to be purchased from individual districts. They don't make it free.
Hi, I have the 2020 data from a .rar file, where is the 2016 Json data housed?
Replacing the above links with 2016-11-08 doesn't work.
Hopefully this data is accurate https://github.com/tonmcg/US_County_Level_Election_Results_08-20

thanks, is there a centralized location that has a registered voter count for each election year per each location (fips) ?
