The Voter Guide has a new format. First, voters will be able to quickly see their ballot by typing in their address. All the races and candidates relevant to that address will then appear on screen. Under each race, every candidate will have a Profile. The Profile contains basic contact information, obtained from the Washington Secretary of State. Each candidate was required to provide this information to the SoS when they filed to run for office. A candidate may have voluntarily submitted additional information to WBWV, which was subsequently added to their Profile. A new feature is Candidate Research. This is information obtained by trained research volunteers to determine candidates’ alignment with WBWV’s values and positions. Finally, the Survey is the most important feature of the Voter Guide. This year’s candidate survey is very different from past surveys. We partnered with Peacemaker Ministries to develop a unique candidate survey that discerns candidates’ worldview and positions on key issues, utilizing proven assessment models used in mediation.
