There are a number of examples of much more detailed, localresults being published by national or regional bodies in several:- Ireland: the Department of the Environment, Community and LocalGovernment document (PDF format) with a complete set of local electionresults for every local authority, including the votes for every candidatein every ward.- India: the Election Commission publishes a spreadsheet with full resultsfor every constituency in the 29 regional elections. This also indicatedwhether candidates were male or female.- Australia: Regional bodies publish full results including every ward forlocal elections in their area.
