TurboVote

Overview

TurboVote is an online voter registration and vote by mail tool. This class contains a single method which allows you to export your users (aka signups).

Note

Authentication: TurboVote requires HTTP Basic Auth. Clients with a TurboVote account must pass their username, password, and subdomain.

QuickStart

To instantiate the TurboVote class, you can either store your TurboVote API username, password, subdomain as environmental variables (TURBOVOTE_USERNAME, TURBOVOTE_PASSWORD, and TURBOVOTE_SUBDOMAIN, respectively) or pass them in as arguments:

from parsons import TurboVote

# First approach: Pass credentials via environmental variables.
tv = TurboVote()

# Second approach: Pass credentials as arguments.
tv = TurboVote(username='me', password='pass', subdomain='myorg')

You can then call the method:

# Get users
tv.get_users()
