Voting Guides & Research

As election day approaches, many nonpartisan organizations, media outlets, and civic groups publish voter guides to help the public learn more about candidates and ballot measures.

These guides often allow you to view a personalized ballot based on your home address and may include information such as a candidate’s background, experience, and positions on issues.

Regardless of where you choose to look, we encourage voters to take time to review multiple nonpartisan sources and do their own research before casting a ballot.
