- Worth noticing
- The site says marked picks stay in the visitor’s browser, and that addresses are never sent to Spectrum Vote.
Field notes
The page says address-based district lookup runs in the visitor’s browser through the U.S. Census Bureau, with OpenStreetMap as a fallback; ballot and polling-place data come from Google’s Civic Information API. Candidate placement uses DW-NOMINATE for congressional roll-call records, DIME donor-based scores for candidates with campaign fundraising since 2010, and labeled Jev AI estimates for others. The site reports local races and measures in 43 states.
