Local coverageElection.org roadmapLeading

Complete useful local and school-board coverage across the United States

For every city, county, school system, court, and special district, connect the public body to current governing people, seats and terms, selection method, next election, exact boundaries, meetings and votes, money and contracts, public outcomes, and field-level freshness—while keeping every unresolved layer visible.

Partially shipped

Available now: Government and school explorers, selected governing rosters, and source-linked resident contacts are live. Illinois circuit-clerk contacts now cover all 102 counties.

Still to build

Complete governing people, seats, terms, selection, elections, boundaries, meetings, votes, money, contracts and outcomes for every local body. Current coverage varies by field and place.

People & profilesElection.org roadmap

Let officials and candidates claim and complete their profiles

Create a verification path for public figures to add official photos, biographies, links, and sourced corrections without changing the neutral public-record layer.

Partially shipped

Available now: Officials, candidates and authorized representatives can start a profile-claim request by email. Sourced corrections have a separate request flow.

Still to build

Verified contributor accounts and an end-to-end editing and review workflow for photos, biographies and links. The request form does not unlock or automatically change a profile.

InternationalElection.org roadmap

Expand the sourced election record to every country

Build country-by-country election, results, party, office, and candidate records with permanent URLs and an explicit source and coverage standard.

Partially shipped

Available now: Country explorers and selected sourced election results are live, with permanent record links and coverage notes.

Still to build

Every country and its election, result, party, office and candidate layers. An available country page does not mean its full civic record is complete.

Data & chartsElection.org roadmap

Publish more beautiful, downloadable election charts

Add sourced chart stories for turnout, representation, party control, campaign money, registration, and election administration—with a permanent SEO page, CSV, and JSON for every chart.

Partially shipped

Available now: The election chart library has permanent chart pages, named sources, and CSV and JSON downloads.

Still to build

Expand the chart stories and datasets across turnout, representation, party control, campaign money, registration and election administration.

Ballots & electionsElection.org roadmap

Add plain-language ballot and office explainers everywhere

Explain what each office controls, what ballot language means, and where authority actually sits, while linking every factual statement back to a public source.

Partially shipped

Available now: The “Who controls this?” explorer and office guides explain responsibilities and link to source material.

Still to build

Add source-linked, plain-language explanations to every relevant office and ballot item, with local authority and ballot-language coverage.

The public roadmap standard

Community input without a popularity contest pretending to be truth.

Votes guide priorities

Totals show demand. They do not rank candidates, parties, facts, or political viewpoints.

Editorial judgment remains

Election.org still weighs source availability, public value, accessibility, safety, and implementation cost.

No fake activity

Roadmap ideas are labeled as Election.org proposals. Community ideas and votes are real, never simulated.
