Research direction
Locate the scraper entry point that queries select#ctl00_ContentPlaceHolder2_ddlCounty and reproduce the no-data case described by the Capybara::ElementNotFound error. Trace the existing result path and verify that when the selector is absent, the scraper returns empty data without failing.
