Non-partisan civic information for every American voter.
ballot.watch exists to make election information accessible, accurate, and actionable for every voter. We believe an informed electorate is essential to democracy, and that every person deserves clear, unbiased information about the candidates and issues on their ballot.
We cover every level of government — from President to school board, from US Senate races to county commissioners. Our coverage spans all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
Our goal is simple: no voter should ever walk into a polling place unprepared.
We do not endorse candidates or take political positions. Our platform serves voters of all parties and perspectives equally.
We source data from official state election offices, the Associated Press, and public records. We correct errors promptly.
Election information should be free and available to everyone. We will never charge voters to access basic election data.
We are open about our data sources, our funding, and our methodology. If we make a mistake, we own it.
Your ballot is your business. We never share your preferences with campaigns, parties, or advertisers.
We cover all 50 states and DC, from federal to local races. Every voter deserves to know who is on their ballot.
ballot.watch is independently operated. We are not funded by any political party, campaign, PAC, or government entity.
Revenue comes from optional premium features for endorsing organizations — tools that help civic groups, unions, and editorial boards publish and manage their endorsements. Voter-facing election data is and will remain free.
We do not accept advertising from political campaigns. Our editorial independence is non-negotiable.
We welcome feedback and corrections from voters, candidates, and election officials. If you spot an error or have information that would improve our coverage, please reach out.
