SleekRank for election result pages
Reporters and voters search for results by contest name, district number, or candidate. SleekRank reads the certified results feed and renders one indexable URL per contest with vote totals, precinct breakdown, candidate cards, and time-stamped update banners.

Election results belong on one indexable page per contest
On election night and the weeks of canvassing after, search queries explode in volume and specificity: "Mesa mayor results", "AZ-04 results", "Travis County DA results", "Prop 309 results". A single results dashboard, no matter how interactive, cannot rank for every contest on the ballot because it lives at one URL. The deep linking that newsrooms, campaigns, and curious voters need only works when every contest has its own page.
SleekRank reads the certified results feed (a CSV exported from the EMS, a JSON URL from the state, or a Google Sheet maintained by the canvass team) and renders one page per contest against a base WordPress page. Tag mappings handle the contest name and district. Selector mappings inject the leading candidate, the percentage spread, and the precinct-reporting count. List mappings render the candidate cards in order with vote totals and percentages. Meta mappings keep the description tied to the most recent update timestamp.
The Mesa mayor contest lives at /results/mesa-mayor-2026/ with its candidate cards, precinct breakdown, and last-updated banner. AZ-04 lives at its own URL. Same template, different rows, individually crawlable, each one ranking for the contest name reporters and voters actually search.

Comparison
Single results dashboard vs per-contest pages
Interactive results dashboard at one URL
- A single dashboard URL cannot rank for every contest name on the ballot
- Candidate cards and precinct breakdowns sit behind JavaScript filters
- Reporters cannot deep-link to a specific race for live coverage
- Update timestamps live in the JS state, not in the HTML
- Search engines crawl the dashboard once and miss every individual race
- Sharing a result on social media drops the visitor into a generic dashboard
SleekRank
- One indexable URL per contest on the ballot
- Candidate cards, totals, and percentages rendered as crawlable HTML
- Precinct-reporting count and last-updated time visible in source
- Short cache duration keeps results fresh on election night
- Sitemap registers every contest URL automatically
- Same template handles partisan, nonpartisan, and ballot-measure contests
Features
What SleekRank gives you for election result pages
Per-contest URL
Every contest on the ballot gets a /results/{slug}/ page with candidate totals, percentages, and precincts-reporting count rendered as crawlable text so newsrooms and search engines hit a stable canonical for each race.
Candidate cards in order
List mappings render the candidate array in vote-total order with names, party labels, totals, and percentages, so the leader is unambiguous and the rest of the field is visible without a hover or a filter.
Time-stamped updates
Each row carries a last-updated timestamp and a precincts-reporting count, both rendered in the HTML. A short cache duration on election night keeps the page tracking the canvass without manual edits.
Use cases
Who builds election result pages with SleekRank
Newsrooms
Local and regional newsrooms covering down-ballot races that need a stable canonical URL per contest for live updates, social-share links, and follow-up reporting through the canvass window.
County election offices
Clerk and election-administration sites publishing official results in addition to a dashboard, with one indexable page per contest as the linkable record for press, parties, and the public.
Civic data projects
Nonprofit civic-data teams aggregating results across counties or states, where each contest needs a stable URL that downstream researchers, journalists, and educators can cite for years.
The bigger picture
Why per-contest result pages beat a single dashboard
Election results are queried by name, not by dashboard URL. Voters and reporters type the contest they care about into search and expect a page that answers it. A single dashboard cannot win those queries because it sits at one URL and depends on filters that crawlers never run.
Per-contest indexable pages solve the deep-linking problem the dashboard cannot. The same feed the dashboard already consumes becomes the source for every contest URL, with candidate cards, vote totals, percentages, precincts-reporting counts, and last-updated timestamps all rendered as HTML. Newsrooms can embed a single contest page in a live story.
Social-share links land readers on the exact race instead of a generic results home. Researchers years later still find the contest at the same URL, because the slug never changed. The dashboard remains useful as a navigation surface, and the per-contest pages do the search and linking work the dashboard never could.
Questions
Common questions about SleekRank for election result pages
Yes. Set the SleekRank cache duration to one to five minutes during the canvass window. The feed is read on each cache refresh, candidate totals re-render, and the last-updated timestamp moves with each cycle. After certification, raise the cache duration since the numbers stop changing.
 Define separate page groups per feed or merge the feeds in a small ETL step and point one page group at the merged file. SleekRank reads a single source per page group, so the canonical layout is one page per contest regardless of how many systems generated the data.
 Add a status column (live, canvassing, certified) and use meta and selector mappings to render a clear banner per state. The same URL serves the contest through every status, which preserves search authority and gives press a stable link that always points to the latest official number.
 Yes. Use a contest-type column (candidate, measure, retention) and conditional rendering on the base page so measure pages show Yes/No cards while candidate pages show name cards. The mappings stay shared and the URL pattern stays uniform across the ballot.
 Add a precinct-results column carrying a JSON array per contest (precinct, candidate totals) and use a selector or list mapping to render a table or sortable widget. Pair it with the /precincts/ page group for two-way navigation between contest and precinct pages.
 Yes. SleekRank registers every generated URL with the sitemap and noindexes the base template page so only contest URLs get crawled. New contests added before the cycle appear in the sitemap on the next cache refresh.
 Keep the URL stable, update the row when the canvass certifies revised totals, and add a recount-notes field rendered via a selector mapping. A timestamped update banner gives press a clear visual cue without requiring a redirect or a new page.
 Yes. Place JSON-LD on the base page with placeholder fields and inject candidate, contest, and date data via mappings. Civic-results schema is still evolving, but PoliticalParty, Person, and Event markers around the page produce machine-readable data that downstream aggregators can ingest.
