Field notes
The guide breaks coverage into government bodies and practical tasks, including schedules, video channels, agendas, minutes, and public-comment rules. It says the five West Virginia counties included were selected as the state's largest using Census Bureau estimates, while explicitly listing substantial gaps such as most municipalities and school districts. The homepage says records were checked against government sites on 2026-08-15 and that individual pages identify what they have not confirmed.
