Candidate Match
Compare candidates by their own words, not their names. Judge the statements blind, then see who you actually line up with.
STEP 1
Pick a race
Choose any race on your ballot that has published statements.
STEP 2
Answer blindly
Agree or disagree with each statement, without seeing who wrote it.
STEP 3
See your matches
Find who you agreed with most, every statement quoted and attributed.
Your answers are saved only on this device, never sent or stored.
How this works
Every statement is an exact excerpt from a questionnaire the candidate completed or from their own campaign website, verified word for word against the source and attributed when you reach your results. We never label candidates or classify their positions; you judge the statements yourself, and your result is simple arithmetic over your own answers. Candidates receive a near-equal number of statements, and candidates with no published statements are always listed. Your answers never leave this device.
