About BallotQuestions.vote
BallotQuestions.vote tracks statewide ballot measures and explains each one in plain language, with the official fiscal note, what supporters and opponents say, and links to the sources behind every entry.
This is not a government site
BallotQuestions.vote is an independent project. It is not operated by, affiliated with, endorsed by, or speaking for any federal, state, county, or municipal government, any election office, or any political party, campaign, or committee. Nothing on this site is official.
Only your state election authority can tell you what is on your ballot, whether you are registered, where and when to vote, and what the certified results are. Use this site to understand a measure; use your state election authority to act on it.
Where official information comes from
Every measure page links to the state election authority that published the ballot text, the fiscal note, and the results. Those links are the official record; this site is a summary of it.
Nonpartisan by construction
This site takes no position on any measure, ever. It does not tell anyone how to vote, and it does not describe any outcome as good or bad.
Arguments for and against a measure are presented side by side and attributed to the named organizations that made them. When this site says supporters argue something, that is a report of what an identified group said, traceable to a cited source — not a claim by this site.
What is tracked
Statewide measures: citizen initiatives, referendums, legislative referrals, constitutional amendments, bond measures, and recalls. A measure appears here only when there is a citable, public record of it. Coverage grows state by state as that record is verified, so a state with no page here is a state with no verified data yet — not a state with no measures.
Local and municipal measures are out of scope for now.
How entries are built
Sourcing rules, the order of source preference, how plain-language summaries are written, how status labels are assigned, and how errors are corrected are all documented on the methodology page.
Corrections and contact
Corrections are welcome and are treated as a priority. If something here is out of date, incomplete, or wrong, please report it — see the correction policy for what to include and what happens next.
Reuse
Summaries on this site are written for voters and may be quoted with attribution to the source documents linked on each measure page. Official ballot text and fiscal notes are the work of the states that published them.
