Ballot Information

Show voters what’s at stake in their elections.

Make Every Race Count

Most voters know the presidential candidates, but many important decisions happen closer to home. TurboVote helps voters discover what's on their entire ballot—from local races to ballot measures that directly affect their communities.

Local races and ballot measures decide critical issues like healthcare, taxes, and environmental policies. By providing comprehensive, personalized Sample Ballots for every election, we help organizations show their audiences what's at stake and why their vote matters.

TurboVote gives organizations simple tools to inform their communities and boost voter participation in every race on the ballot.

Sample Ballots

Voters can access personalized ballot information quickly and easily in TurboVote—available from the homepage and at the top of their Election Guide. The sample ballot is generated based on the user's address or selected state.

The sample ballot displays upcoming races and candidates, plus an overview of ballot measures and lists the topics those measures cover, such as education, elections, healthcare, and taxes.

Clicking into a ballot measure displays the measure’s name and a brief description, along with a short summary of what a “Yes” and “No” vote means, allowing voters the opportunity to get informed.

To learn more about candidates, users can click an individual’s name to view links to their campaign’s website and social media accounts, their Ballotpedia page, and contact information.
