I seem to be unable to locate the voter supplement to the years before 2020 on the IPUMS CPS web site. Please let me know where I can find those data? Thanks.

All of the supplements are available in the [sample selection menu](https://cps.ipums.org/cps-action/samples) on the IPUMS CPS website. To get to the menu you would hit _Get Data_ on the[IPUMS CPS homepage](https://cps.ipums.org/cps/index.shtml) followed by _Select Samples_ on the top left. Once you’re on that page, you want to select _Basic Monthly_, followed by _Supplement Topics,_ and _Voter._ There you will be able to select voter supplements from 1976 to 2020.
