Ballotpedia, America’s most trusted source for unbiased election and political information has partnered with Citizen Portal, the pioneering AI-powered platform that analyzes government meetings.
This collaboration combines AI-powered meeting analysis with Ballotpedia’s comprehensive political encyclopedia to give voters and citizens richer, more accessible insights into local government decisions.
Ballotpedia and Citizen Portal
As part of this partnership, Ballotpedia will embed Citizen Portal’s school board AI-powered analysis tool within its platform, enabling millions of voters relying on Ballotpedia for election information to access detailed insights about their local government meetings and decisions.
“Every voter deserves access to neutral, factual political information, no matter how local or technical the subject may be,” said Paul Allen, CEO and founder of Citizen Portal. “By partnering with Ballotpedia—the organization voters already trust for election information—we can help bridge that gap and ensure citizens have the tools they need to be more confident participants in our representative democracy.”
“This partnership reflects our shared commitment to creating an educated, engaged electorate,” said Leslie Graves, founder and CEO of Ballotpedia. “While our Sample Ballot Lookup Tool and Candidate Connection surveys help voters understand who and what is on their ballot, Citizen Portal’s AI analysis helps them understand what their elected officials are actually doing in office.”
The partnership underscores both organizations’ dedication to nonpartisan information delivery, ensuring equal access to government data that fosters democratic participation and accountability.
