About This Project
Each tool is designed to explain how something actually works — in plain language, grounded in local numbers — and contrast it with what most people assume. The goal isn't to tell you how to vote. It's to give you the information you need to decide for yourself. Democracy works better when people understand the systems they're operating in.
