Ballotpedia

The mission of the Lucy Burns Institute is to empower our audience to engage in democracy by delivering exceptionally high quality information. We strive to equip our readers with the truth so it can be used in positive, powerful, and unforeseen ways. Informed voters are the foundation of democracy and positive change starts with them. We believe that the online environment is an extraordinary opportunity to reach voters with comprehensive facts, information, and context. With your help, we have created and continue to build Ballotpedia, the online encyclopedia of American politics and elections. With over 285,000 original articles, Ballotpedia's goal is to inform people about politics by providing accurate and objective information about politics at all levels of government. Ballotpedia's articles are 100 percent written by our professional staff. We thoroughly vet and carefully curate all information we publish.
