For the 2006-09-12 primary election (id 437),
we have a zip archive file for each party, containing some xls files and several PDF files.
These offices have only PDF files:
Senate, House, State Treasurer, State Senate, Assembly, District Attorney
(There are xls files for Governor, Lieutenant Governor, Attorney General, Secretary of State)
Four additional PDFs are labeled recount:
