wallace

This data set contains, on a county level, the proportion of
  county residents who are Black and the proportion of presidential
  votes cast for Wallace.  Demographic data is based on the 1960
  census. Presidential returns are from ICPSR study 13.  County data
  from 10 southern states (Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Florida,
  Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee,
  Texas) are included. (Virginia is excluded due
  to the difficulty of matching counties between the datasets.)
  This data is analyzed in Wallace and Segal (1973).

datasets

eco is a publicly available R package that implements the
  Bayesian and likelihood methods proposed in Imai, Lu, and Strauss 
  (2008) for ecological inference in $2 \times 2$ tables as
  well as the method of bounds introduced by Duncan and Davis (1953). 
  The package fits both parametric and nonparametric models using 
  either the Expectation-Maximization algorithms (for likelihood
  models) or the Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithms (for Bayesian 
  models).  For all models, the individual-level data can be directly 
  incorporated into the estimation whenever such data are available. 
  Along with in-sample and out-of-sample predictions, the package also 
  provides a functionality which allows one to quantify the effect of data
  aggregation on parameter estimation and hypothesis testing under the
  parametric likelihood models.
