Who won the House race in your district?

Winner of the House race in district · Asked in 19 waves, 1970–2012 · 38,354 responses · weighted estimates computed from individual responses

Not loaded for 2016: the release places 72% of 2016 respondents in districts whose House incumbent was not running (VCF0903), against 9% to 15% in 2008, 2012, and 2020 and far more than the share of seats that were open that year, so its 2016 type-of-race coding, and the items built from it, look wrong. Judged a coding error; ANES has published no erratum. Dropped as not asked: 9 'Washington D.C.; California (1974 only, due to redistricting, type of race could not be determined); winner not from major party (2000); respondent district NA (2000); district misidentified (2000)'. Codebook notes: 1970 NOTE: Warning: The procedures used in the creation of the VCF1014 ‘winner’ for 1970 and 1974 produced data that have been checked somewhat, but perfect accuracy cannot be completely guaranteed due to the nature of attempting case- by-case coding from reference material. The possibility of some error must be recognized and the ‘winner’ established in VCF1014 should be used with caution and at the user’s risk. 1974 NOTE: See 1970 warning. California data in 1974 for VCF1014 ‘Who Won’ is not recoverable because ‘type of race’ in California districts for the 1974 election cannot be determined. 2016 NOTE: For LA04, late identification of final candidates resulted in having type of race not determined. LA04 cases are coded 9.
