Evidence
The portal responds but renders client-side, so no content was read by a text fetch. INEC states IReV displays uploaded result sheets and is not electronic collation.
Limitations
Result sheets are images, not data. Upload completeness has been disputed in court. Copying images or derived datasets needs INEC's terms or permission.
Ingestion plan
Link and cite for polling-unit results. Any structured extraction would need permission, image preservation with hashes, and manual verification of every transcribed figure.
Expected records, as stated: Not measured — source discovery only; no underlying records ingested.
Terms of use
Reuse licence, robots policy and automated-access permissions have not yet been established. Link to the publisher; do not redistribute or automate collection until reviewed.
