Turnout by Age, Gender and Province, GE38–GE44

Turnout by Age, Gender and Province, GE38–GE44 Since 2004, Elections Canada has used a sample of administrative data compiled in the course of administering the election to estimate voter turnout by age group and, since 2008, by sex/gender, at the national, provincial and territorial levels. These administrative data, combined with those from the National Register of Electors, offer a more accurate way of measuring and studying turnout than survey-based studies, which consistently overestimate participation. Data for this dataset comes from the reports on turnout by age and gender, which are published after each general election. 2022-07-11 Elections Canada Ouvert-Open@elections.ca Government and PoliticsPersonselectionfederal electionturnouteligible electors Turnout by Age, Gender and Province, GE38–GE44CSV https://open.canada.ca/data/dataset/b545fe25-5cf5-4488-9923-b5c2ebeeb8cc/resource/73586e35-290d-431c-94ba-5cf8a97c4ae5/download/turnout_by_age_gender_and_province_ge38_ge44.csv Turnout by Age, Gender and Province, GE38–GE44 Data Dictionary - EnglishDOCX https://open.canada.ca/data/dataset/b545fe25-5cf5-4488-9923-b5c2ebeeb8cc/resource/affdb1e8-e81c-480d-8972-d4e2c1832034/download/turnout-by-age-gender-and-province-ge38-ge44-data-dictionary-en.docx Turnout by Age, Gender and Province, GE38–GE44 Data Dictionary - FrenchDOCX https://open.canada.ca/data/dataset/b545fe25-5cf5-4488-9923-b5c2ebeeb8cc/resource/0d92184e-a41d-4060-8270-691b13793f8c/download/turnout-by-age-gender-and-province-ge38-ge44-data-dictionary-fr.docx
