How it works

  1. Find your races

    The ballot page lists every contest from federal to school board. Search a name or filter by level.

  2. Read the record

    Each candidate's page shows their actions and statements on LGBTQIA+ issues, labelled affirming or opposing, each with its source.

  3. Judge it yourself

    The counts only summarise what is on the record. Where we found nothing, it says so. We never guess from party or endorsements, and we never endorse.

Each candidate shows a plain count of sourced affirming and opposing items. Counts are not ratings, and nothing on this site is an endorsement.
