Build a Ballot is for you when you’re trying to figure out what all the minor Senate parties are on about. It’s for your friend from run club who’ll ask ‘is there an election?’ 3 days before the vote. It’s for your colleague who thinks preferencing an independent means wasting their vote (PS it doesn’t).
We're bringing Build a Ballot back for all state elections from 2026. Sign up for updates for your state and we'll let you know when Build a Ballot goes live.
We’ll never sell data or charge users, which means we rely on donations to bring Build a Ballot to life. A monthly $5 (tax deductible!) donation keeps Build a Ballot live and you informed (hot).
