About us
WeVote is building the next generation of voting tech. We're creating a digital voter guide informed by issues you care about and people you trust. Through our nonpartisan, open source platform, we'll help you become a better voter, up and down the ballot. You have a lot of decisions to make when you vote, and political campaigns don't always tell the whole truth. With fake news and misinformation, it's hard to tell which candidate or ballot initiative is on your side. Does that candidate for state legislature care about the same issues that you do? Does the awkwardly-worded ballot initiative support what you believe or is it the exact opposite (and was it purposely written to be so confusing?!) We Vote cuts through the clutter to help you understand what's on your ballot. Our open platform empowers voters to create and share voter guides that aggregate information and opinions across personal networks. So you can help your friends be better voters too.

Children are likely going to learn about politics from somewhere. Friends, social media, relatives, etc. It’s important that they hear it from a reliable source too. Here are some tips to get the conversation going about civic responsibility with kids: -Make It Relatable: Show them how it relates to their life. Use real-life examples to get them connected. -Promote Critical Thinking: There’s more than one side to every story. Teach them the different perspectives and have them research and ask questions about the viewpoints. -Keep It Reliable: Being objective is essential! It’s important to make informed decisions. Ensure they have the proper tools to form their own opinions, free from bias. -Get Them Involved: Take them to community functions, like local government meetings, to get some hands-on experience. -Stay Consistent: These conversations shouldn’t stop when the election is over. Civic responsibility is a life-long duty. Make sure you have a safe space to discuss future topics. Check out the WeVote blog for more! https://ow.ly/CCbc50Trn9R
