The Malaysian Election Corpus (MECo): Federal and State-Level Election Results from 1955 to 2025.

Summary: For a long time, it was hard to study elections in Malaysia because good data was kept secret. Now, researchers have created the Malaysian Election Corpus (MECo). It is a free, open database that covers every national and state election from 1955 to 2025! It includes details on over 9,700 races, showing who ran, who won, and how many people voted. It even tracks the age, gender, and race of the candidates. This amazing tool will help scientists, journalists, and citizens understand Malaysia's voting history better than ever before.
