VoterGuideOS

VoterGuideOS helps newsrooms create interactive, personalized voter guides that grow their audiences while reducing the time and effort required to produce election coverage.

The platform comes preloaded with election and candidate data and gives newsrooms tools to distribute candidate questionnaires, publish localized ballot information, and help readers find the races relevant to their address.

• Grow and retain your audience. Election season brings an influx of readers searching for trustworthy voting information. VoterGuideOS helps newsrooms convert that traffic into lasting relationships through newsletter sign-ups and other audience-growth tools. Minnesota Public Radio collected more than 11,000 email addresses through its voter guide during the 2026 primaries.
• Save newsroom time. Preloaded election and candidate data eliminates weeks of manual research and data entry, allowing journalists to focus on reporting rather than assembling spreadsheets.
• Expand your election coverage. Newsrooms can cover more candidates, communities, and local races without creating an equivalent increase in production work. CalMatters uses VoterGuideOS to include local election information across California.
• Streamline candidate questionnaires. Integrated questionnaire tools make it easier to contact candidates, collect their responses, and publish profiles at scale. Charlottesville Tomorrow used the platform to profile hundreds of candidates across 20 counties with unique, local questionnaires.
• Deliver a personalized reader experience. Address-based ballot lookup helps readers quickly find the candidates and measures that will appear on their own ballots, increasing engagement throughout the election cycle.

VoterGuideOS is trusted by nonprofit newsrooms and public media organizations, both statewide and local, including Minnesota Public Radio, Georgia Public Broadcasting, CalMatters, Charlottesville Tomorrow, Atlanta Civic Circle, and Texas Tribune.
