"Thanks again for providing the best election resource since the invention of the newspaper." --Hamilton County, OH

"This is truly incredible. I don't know how you have managed to make voting information available in such an accessible and cognitive way... Great job! ..." --Marin

"Thanks for the convenient layout and personalized capacity of your Web site.

I went to your page ... and suddenly everything heretofore arduous became a breeze." --San Francisco

"BRAVO!! Your site got me exactly the info I needed in one step. I've been procrastinating and dreading the process of trying to [find] my voter info online ever since I lost my print version. ... Thank you!" --San Mateo

"I ... hope to see some information for my county here soon. Otherwise, this is an excellent site and resource, and you are featured at the top of my government page... Thanks again for the resource. --New Haven Co. CN

"Your SmartVoter site is the best thing to come along since chocolate cake (almost)." --Santa Clara

Sure wish we had this here in Minnesota. What a great way to get all the info in one place. -- Sherburne Co., MN

"An EXCELLENT resource! The information is presented in a logical and organized manner. I have always found exactly what I was looking for within moments. This web page is one of the most useful and timely I've seen. I will be sending a donation in support of the League of Women Voters Education Fund! Thank you very much for a job well done." --Humboldt

"Very much appreciated the "smart voter" features that took me directly to candidates & issues for MY district. What a fantastic time-saver! The links to newspaper articles, speeches, etc. were also greatly appreciated. It was wonderful to go directly to the further detailed information I wanted instead of spending hours scanning newspapers & rummaging thru mountains of irrelevant data. I have noted this website for future use... THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR PROVIDING THIS VALUABLE SERVICE!!" --Hamilton Co., OH

"WOW! Thank you VERY much! An OUTSTANDING service from one of the great organizations left."

From Candidates...

"I haven't a single suggestion! Just having this available is beyond anything I would have expected (I am a U.S. Senatorial candidate)!" --Arizona

"As a school board candidate, I am very grateful to the League of Women voters for this opportunity to reach voters. Democracy only works where voters are informed about issues and candidates. ... As a qualified candidate without a war chest bankrolled by rich and powerful special interests, I am especially appreciative of this opportunity to spread the word without the gravy." --Orange
