Where Do You Get Voting Information? Real Answers from Real People
Why it matters
Election rules differ state by state and sometimes change from year to year. Using VOTE411, voters can confirm their polling location, check if an ID is required, and see what their personal ballot will look like. Confirming this information before heading to the polls saves voters time and helps voters make more informed decisions.
What sets VOTE411 apart from other online voter guides is its top-to-bottom coverage (all Delaware races from U.S. President and DE state-level, all the way down to county rows offices and school board members), and the unbiased candidate information... in the candidate's own unedited words.
