Attached below, users will find two CSV's that can be downloaded and used to serve as a countdown to Election Day 2022.
The file named "KYDP-Campaign-2022-EDAY-Countdown" can be used as a daily countdown for users and comes with a week number countdowns as well. For the daily countdown, viewers can use the "DATE" and "DAYS TO ELECTION DAY" column.
The "WEEK_ISO" column signifies which week in the year that a date falls under on a 1-52 scale, starting on Monday and ending on Sunday.
Meanwhile, the other week fields (eday_week and fri_thu_week) are weekly countdowns of the entire cycle (starting in 2021) to November 8, 2022. "EDAY_WEEK" is related to "WEEK_ISO" by having reporting weeks begin on a Monday and end on Sunday. "FRI_THU_WEEK", however, is a common reporting week set up in campaigns with weeks starting on Friday and ending on Thursday. This reporting week allows campaigns to front load their work week (Friday through Sunday) to correspond to when the most volunteers and voter contact will be happening.
The file named "_KYDP Campaigns_ 2022 E-Day Countdown - E-Day Reporting Weeks" (also embedded below) simplifies the "EDAY_WEEK" (referred to as "MON_SUN_WEEK") and "FRI_THU_WEEK" mentioned above by creating one line for each week with start and end dates. Alongside "FRI_THU_WEEK" and "MON_SUN_WEEK" the viewer can see the specific date range for that reporting week. This report can be used to build out internal trackers and matches what will be found in various templates and reports created by KDP.
Both the FIELD MATH WORKBOOK and KYDP CAMPAIGNS: 2022 DVC REPORT are using the "MON_SUN_WEEK" for their reporting structure.
