Electoral or de elecciones?

Question

Here's another Democracy in español question I for anyone willing to help a sister out:

For "election results," would it be "resultados de las elecciones" or "resultados electorales"?

I'm always tempted to use the latter in phrases like this because it's easier and seems to flow better.

I'm not sure if "electorales" only translates to "electoral," though, which is definitely not what I want.

Thanks!

Answer 1

"resultados electorales".

So "electoral" in Spanish doesn't just translate literally to "electoral" - ohblanca, May 23, 2012

Answer 2

Either one is correct, but the second one sounds and looks more professional.
