Dear Reader,
Too many voters go into the voting booth on Election Day and think, "I don't know who any of these people are on my ballot.”
Ballotpedia is determined to change that. Our goal is to provide robust information about every candidate in every election. We define robust data as any of the following:
-
A completed Ballotpedia Candidate Connection Survey,
-
Campaign themes,
-
Endorsements,
-
Pledges,
-
Ratings
But, providing robust information about every candidate in every election is a monumental challenge with more than 500,000 elected officials nationwide, 96% of them at the local level. But with your help, we’re closing the gap.
In 2024, we covered more than 11,000 total local elections. In 2025, we covered more than 35,000 local elections, but thousands more remain, and we need your contribution to help get us there!

Tomorrow is Giving Tuesday, and when you donate to Ballotpedia, you are helping to ensure voters everywhere have the information they need to make confident, informed decisions.

Thank you for being part of this critical work,
Geoff Pallay
Director of External Relations
Ballotpedia
P.S. Your gift today is being matched up to $25,000 by the generosity of one of Ballotpedia’s supporters. Your donation will go even further in helping us provide the robust information voters need to make informed decisions at the ballot box.
