Overview

Removing barriers to voting.

Like most people, we wanted to find any way that we could help during the 2020 presidential election. One way we identified was to make the a one stop shop, simple way to get your local voting info.

Making public voting data accessible.

Vote by address uses Google Civic API's data to display a custom dashboard for a user based on their street address.

An accessible UI.

Vote by address was designed to be a simple, accessible, and responsive UI. The goal was to make it easy for anyone to find their local voting information without needing to sign up or log in. Voting information shouldn't be behind a paywall or a login form.

Between big elections, the Google Civic API doesn't have ballot or polling place data to share yet. Instead of letting someone type in their address only to get an empty result, the site defaults to a countdown to the next major election. Once election data is available, the address search takes its place.
