New Poliquicks App Empowers 2024 Voters with Nonpartisan Political Education

U.S. Vote Foundation is proud to support young civic developers to bring their unique development ideas forward. Poliquicks is an exemplary member of our 2024 U.S. Vote Foundation Civic Data - Young Developer Sponsorship Program. The new Poliquicks app is now available – just in time to help you cast your 2024 ballot!

At a time when political information can be overwhelming and sometimes difficult to trust, the need for reliable, easily accessible, and nonpartisan resources is more crucial than ever. That’s where Poliquicks comes in — an innovative political education app designed to empower citizens by providing accurate, unbiased information.

We are excited to announce that Poliquicks has just launched and is proud to leverage U.S. Vote Foundation’s trusted civic data to enhance the app’s Elections tab, giving users direct access to critical election dates, deadlines, and information about upcoming elections in every state.

The Purpose of Poliquicks

Poliquicks was born out of the growing need for transparency and simplicity in political education. The app’s primary goal is to demystify the political process, breaking down complex topics into bite-sized, easy-to-understand pieces. Whether you're a first-time voter or a seasoned political enthusiast, Poliquicks ensures you’re informed and equipped with nonpartisan facts that can help you engage more confidently in the democratic process.

One way Poliquicks does this is through the Poli-Match feature. Users can take a short quiz to match with candidates based on stances. After this quiz, they are provided with a list of all candidates, local, state, and federal, ranked according to common stances.
 

Enhancing the Elections Tab with U.S. Vote Foundation Civic Data

In collaboration with U.S. Vote Foundation (US Vote), Poliquicks takes voter education to the next level by integrating real-time, accurate election data. US Vote’s wealth of information on election dates, voter registration deadlines, absentee ballot procedures, and other critical information has been seamlessly incorporated into Poliquicks, making the Elections tab an invaluable resource for users.

Here’s how the Elections tab, powered by US Vote civic data, improves the voting experience:

  1. Comprehensive Election Calendars: Users can access up-to-date information on local, state, and federal elections, ensuring they never miss an important election date. US Vote's civic data enables Poliquicks to provide personalized election timelines based on each user’s location.
     
  2. Key Deadlines at Your Fingertips: Knowing when to register to vote, request an absentee ballot, or submit a mail-in ballot can be challenging. With US Vote’s civic data integrated into the Poliquicks app, users can view these deadlines with ease and stay on track to meet all the necessary requirements.
     
  3. User-Friendly Alerts and Reminders: Poliquicks sends timely notifications and reminders for upcoming elections and deadlines, so users stay informed and prepared. These features help ensure that voters don’t miss key dates due to the fast-paced nature of election seasons.
     

A Nonpartisan Approach to Political Engagement

Poliquicks prides itself on remaining nonpartisan, much like US Vote. By focusing on facts, not opinions, the app provides objective information about policies, candidates, and political trends. Our mission is not to tell voters what to think but to equip them with the knowledge they need to form their own opinions and participate in elections with confidence.

In a landscape where misinformation is abundant, Poliquicks and US Vote are committed to providing a trusted, transparent source of election data. Through this collaboration, we are helping to make the democratic process more accessible to everyone, regardless of political affiliation.
 

Why Poliquicks Matters

At Poliquicks, we believe that democracy thrives when citizens are informed and engaged. The complexities of the political process can be a barrier for many, but we aim to break down those barriers by offering tools that simplify voting and make political knowledge available to everyone. With the added power of US Vote’s election data, Poliquicks is poised to be an indispensable resource for voters across the nation.
