electedBR: Brazilian Election Winners and Sitting Members of Congress

Retrieves the candidates elected in Brazilian municipal and general elections since 2018, consolidated from the open data of the Superior Electoral Court (TSE, https://dadosabertos.tse.jus.br/) and distributed as yearly Parquet files, together with the federal deputies and senators currently serving according to the open data APIs of the Chamber of Deputies (https://dadosabertos.camara.leg.br/) and the Federal Senate (https://www12.senado.leg.br/dados-abertos). Election results and current office holding are kept as distinct queries; electoral roles, service history and provenance are preserved. Every function returns a tibble with English column names and has a Portuguese alias.
