Re-exported directly from Postgres (10.0.0.116), not Atlas's introspection, which under-reported the roster (its v3 export had 11,473, missing the restored Florida League of Cities municipal set). Live DB current tenures: state 7,561 · municipal 4,009 · county 1,217 · federal 542. - build.py now reads officeholders-v3.jsonl (was v2); dataset vintage 2026-07-04 - fixed one corrupt start_date at source-export (21021-12-03 -> 2021-12-03, Lorraine Borowski, Mayor of Decorah IA) - scripts/build_viz.py: committed, deterministic generator for the Board's county_data.json / county_detail.json (previously built ad-hoc) - generate_changelog.py: ignore files whose only change is the vintage stamp, so the diff reflects government change, not re-export bookkeeping Person files 11,285 -> 13,329. Non-FL municipal officials (1,903) are in the tree but not yet county-mappable (place->county crosswalk still NULL). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
