Voter Impact’s Value

  • the powerful connection between where you live and the impact of your vote, which varies significantly across the country.

  • the influence you have on democratic decision making by factoring in the impact of your vote (and voice) when you relocate.

  • where to register/vote, if you have a choice (for example, college students can vote either at school or at their home address), based on the impact of your vote.

  • depolarize the country by improving your V-Impact score, which means moving to a more politically balanced community where elections are more competitive and elected officials represent the opinions of most of us, not just a few of us.

Note: Data is based on election results through November 2024.
