How It Works

Your ballot, finally made clear.

Our principles

Four rules we don’t bend.

No endorsements.

We don’t tell you who deserves your vote. The guide ends where the evidence ends.

Show the source.

Positions come straight off the candidate’s own website. You should always be able to see where information came from.

Every race.

If it’s on your ballot it’s in the guide — judges, water boards, measures, all of it.

Your decision.

The information is ours to organize. The decision is yours to make.

How we build HUSH.

Three steps, every claim.

01

Find

We pull directly from primary material: campaign websites, government records, and public filings.

02

Verify

Every item is checked against its source, and confirmed with a second source whenever one exists.

03

Keep it current

We keep watching for new statements, votes, and filings, so the record stays up to date after you read it.
