abstract: Retrieves the candidates elected in Brazilian municipal and general elections
since 2018, consolidated from the open data of the Superior Electoral Court (TSE,
) and distributed as yearly Parquet files, together
with the federal deputies and senators currently serving according to the open data
APIs of the Chamber of Deputies () and the
Federal Senate (). Election results and
current office holding are kept as distinct queries; electoral roles, service history
and provenance are preserved. Every function returns a tibble with English column
names and has a Portuguese alias.
