looks like everything is good on the python end, but the javascript-based json'ifier is not serializing é to its unicode encoding. Thus the improper hash.
A simple fix could be to not round-trip via the election object in JavaScript, but that is short-term. It would be best to have an improved json serializer that does proper unicode encoding in \uXXXX form.

It appears to be JSON-compatible to not perform \u escaping, which complicates things because it's not clear how easy it is to do JavaScript \u escaping. Thus, the solution for now is to hash the raw JSON, before it is processed.
