Custom developed software for the League of Women Voters of West Virginia
## IMPORTANT: Format for roster
The csv file should have all fields `quoted` to avoid issues where a field may have an additional comma. If file is not shipped this way, this can easily be corrected through the editor. However, the regexp fails if the first column is empty `/^,/`. Until we can find a better regexp to handle this sitution, the current solution is to replace all `/^,/` with `"",` which can be done with an editor like Visual Studio Code in addition to using something like calc.

## LLAW Google Civic Information API Query version 1

Note: Since https://portal.lwvwv.org came online, two csv files are now available, which should both be processed:
1. Local Leagues (Local Leagues) - which has all the local League members
2. MAL (Roster) - which has all the members at large
Depending on your request, this script will process either of those files, and query the Google Civic Information API for the Delegate and Senate Districts, generate an information file or email file.
Usage: ./google-civic-api.pl google ./roster-file (queries Google Civic Api Delegate and Senate District for all LWVWV members)
./google-civic-api.pl WV000 ./roster-file (show all information for members at large, but do not query Google)
./google-civic-api.pl WV000 ./roster-file email (only show email addresses for members at large, but do not query Google)
