BallotReady Expands Comprehensive Voter Guide to Include Hyper Local Races Covering Almost 90% of U.S. Population

Aug.4, 2024

BallotReady, the leading provider of free nonpartisan voter guides, is proud to announce a major expansion of our services in time for the fall 2024 elections.

For the first time, we will offer complete coverage of the entire ballot (including special districts) for 88% of the U.S. population, ensuring that voters can get informed about every candidate down to the hyperlocal level.

BallotReady’s voter guide has always covered federal, state, and county races for all Americans. Each year, millions of people in each state head to www.BallotReady.org to research the candidates on their ballot ahead of Election Day.

Starting this cycle, our Research team is gathering information for upcoming city, township, school board, and local special purpose districts for counties with a population greater than 50,000 (about 90% of Americans). This service enables voters to research their ballot including detailed information on who is running for what positions, including candidates' education, work experience, policy stances, and endorsements.

While many voters walk into the voting booth prepared to vote for president and senator, they frequently struggle with down ballot positions such as school board and city council. At BallotReady, we believe local officials matter.

By expanding our coverage to include even more local races, we’re ensuring that voters have access to information about the candidates and issues that directly impact their communities.
— Alex Niemczewski, CEO

Over the next month, we will offer a series of previews of what’s at stake down the ballot in the upcoming November election, including an analysis of special districts and school board seats.

To expand your current coverage to include these races or to schedule a demo with our team to learn more about our digital voter guides, please let us know.
