Common questions

What is Know Your Ballot?

A free, open-source voter guide for the November 3, 2026 general election in Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin. Enter an address and see your exact ballot: every race, judge and question, what each job does, who is running and who is funding them. It is built on Govbot, Chi Hack Night’s open civic data.

Is Know Your Ballot nonpartisan, and where do its facts come from?

It is nonpartisan: it never recommends or rates a candidate. Every fact names its source next to it: official candidate lists where the state or county publishes one, FEC and state campaign-finance records for money, and Ballotpedia and Wikipedia (CC BY-SA) for profiles and incumbents. A candidate’s own words are quoted verbatim with their date and a link.
