About
Bartłomiej founded ElectioMap in May 2026 out of a long-standing interest in elections, open data and clear information design. The project grew from a simple observation he kept running into on election nights: official results are authoritative but often slow, hard to read on a phone, and scattered across dozens of national websites in different languages and formats. He set out to build a single, fast, free place where anyone could follow a count as it happened — and where the results of past elections from across the world would not disappear behind broken links and archived PDFs.
He works on every part of the site himself. On the data side, he builds and maintains the ingestion pipeline that fetches preliminary results from national electoral commissions during a live count, validates them against a strict results schema, and publishes them to the interactive maps roughly once a minute. For historical elections, he sources figures from the official certified results published by each country's electoral authority, records vote shares to two decimal places exactly as published, and links every page back to its source so readers can verify the numbers independently.
His editorial approach is deliberately narrow: ElectioMap publishes official figures and lets them speak for themselves. It runs no opinion polls, makes no projections, calls no races, and carries no political commentary. That discipline — facts only, official sources first, full independence — is set out in the site's Editorial Policy and Data Methodology.
Coverage to date
Under Bartłomiej's editorship, ElectioMap has built live-results coverage and a growing historical archive spanning every inhabited continent — including detailed multi-election country archives for Finland, Norway and Poland, live election-night coverage for countries such as Colombia, Kosovo, Peru and Switzerland, and result pages for dozens of national elections across Europe, the Americas, Africa, Asia and Oceania. New elections and historical results are added continuously.
Editorial responsibility
As the site's editor, Bartłomiej is responsible for which elections are covered, how results are sourced and labelled, and how corrections are handled. ElectioMap has no affiliation with any government, political party, candidate, campaign or advocacy group, and the site's advertising has no influence on its editorial decisions.
