Your ballot is saved only on this device and never stored by us; deciding a race adds one anonymous tally for that candidate, with no link to you or your other choices. Candidates within each race appear in random order, so no one benefits from being listed first.

How this works

Every candidate on your ballot appears with the same card layout and the same information fields; when we have little information about a candidate, the card says so rather than hiding them. Candidates within each race are shown in random order so no one benefits from position. If you choose focus issues, they only change which information appears first on every card equally; they never hide a candidate, change who appears, or reorder the deck. We never recommend a candidate, and staying undecided is always an equal option. Your swipes and picks are stored only on this device; deciding a race adds one anonymous tally for the chosen candidate, never linked to you or your other choices.
