This is a post coincident with the Oscar awards, so the title is the best one.
As expected ( ! ), currently, all the available records at the Ministery, are properly stored in my pc.
It has not been easy. It has taken a lot of time, emails and phone calls to get their attention in order to spend a little bit of their time ( public servants ) to cooperate with me.
The problem is moving to another field. They can't provide me with the details of the municipalities of more than 250 inhabitants, and less than 100.000, so 80% is not available.
Yesterday I spent 4 hours in the library of the Province Official Gazzette ( BOP ) of Barcelona, surfing through the June-October books of the year 1995.
My average speed was 20 municipalities per hour. The problem is that they can publish their decisions about government structure along four months, without an official publication date.
It means that I have to read, day by day, searching for the needed document.
I need information about 80 cities, in 5 electoral contests, giving a result of 400 documents for which I don't know the publication day
If the average speed remains 20 per hour, I will need 20 hours. If the Library opens 4 hours a day, in 5-7 days should be ready
Meanwhile I will start to work with the documents downloaded from the on-line registers and the ones recorded yesterday, to guarantee that this is a workable stuff
It seems that collecting data will be the core of the investigation
