VRscores Industries Parquet 2012-2024

Industry-year panel dataset derived from the VRscores 2024 release. Each record corresponds to a NAICS code and calendar year from 2012–2024 with at least five matched workers across any year. Variables include the NAICS code and description, worker counts, raw and imputed L2 voter registration counts by party, average match quality, raw and imputed partisan shares, two-party and overall margins, partisan diversity indices, effective number of parties, and a processing timestamp. The dataset contains 13,135 industry-year rows spanning roughly 1,010 NAICS codes per year. It is built from a matching of employment records from Revelio Labs (April 2025) with voter registration data from the L2 voter file (November 2024) using ensemble linkage techniques. Small industries (<5 matched workers) are excluded, one-to-one matches are enforced, and the VRscores methodology and working paper document the data processing and definitions.
