WardAtlas maps the full local-government roster
An elected-officials API that turns a U.S. address into officials across federal, state, county, municipal, school-board, and university jurisdictions.
Field notes
The lookup workflow matches an address to multiple district layers, then returns officials alongside structured provenance such as source URLs, verification timestamps, and confidence values. The homepage distinguishes nationwide federal and state coverage from deeper local layers, including ward-level officials in Washtenaw and Kent Counties, Michigan, and county-district matching across all 83 Michigan counties. It also documents committee memberships, contact-form liveness checks, weak ETags, changed_since feeds, and valid_on queries for election and redistricting changes.
