Visual voter guide
Compare candidates only when there is a dated public position with a visible source.
Start with what matters
Choose housing, safety, schools, or trust. The screen shifts to race context, candidates, visible receipts, limits, and a next step.
Start with the issue, then compare promises when public positions exist.

Axios reported 57% of the Democratic primary vote.
Start here
Ask about candidates, issues, money, public records, and changed statements. Every answer shows what public evidence is strong, missing, or held back for review.

Choose your path
Each path leads to a short answer, the receipts behind it, and what is still missing.
Selected path
Avoid comparing people before the office, date, and ballot context are clear.

Civic lens
Most civic sites show one record at a time. Civic OS joins public statements, filings, records, archives, and source status so readers can see what changed and why it matters.
Claims
A reader should not need to open speeches, scorecards, filings, and news archives one at a time. This view shows where a public claim needs supporting evidence.
Issues
Issue pages can show dated movement instead of a flat label. Public statements, questionnaires, votes, and campaign pages stay tied to citations.
Money
Money views become more useful when they explain which public relationships are visible and which matches remain category-only until reviewed.
Records
Record pages can tell readers which public areas were checked, what can be summarized, and where a match needs care before becoming a claim.
Archive
Archived public posts, speeches, pages, and transcripts give readers a dated source trail when a statement changes or disappears.
Choose visually
Choose ballot, issues, money, or changes. The screen reorganizes around the race, visible receipts, missing pieces, and the next step.
Selected path
Start with the governor race, then open candidates, issues, money, and receipts with public sources.

What to watch
Identity check
Checks whether names, offices, locations, and public sources point to the same public figure.
Claim check
Compares the exact words with records, earlier statements, and dated receipts before assigning a label.
Safety limit
Explains what can be shown, what must stay summarized, and why a detail is not public-facing.
Record coverage
Shows which public record areas were reviewed and where details stay summarized for safety.
Proof strength
Rates whether an answer has enough dates, citations, and receipts to be useful to a voter.
Source freshness
Shows when sources were checked so stale evidence does not look stronger than it is.
