Our Mission
We believe that the problem isn’t how or where to vote, but who to vote for and why. With thousands of politicians running across the country and hundreds of issues they run for, it’s nearly impossible for the average citizen to research every candidate.
We believe we can make a difference in the world by doing the research, organizing the data, and helping voters make more informed voting decisions.
