Alameda County
Everyone brings a dish. Everyone brings an opinion.
A place to talk local politics with the neighbours you actually share a ballot with. Two things are true of everyone here: they live in this county, and a person — not a machine — checked them against the voter roll before letting them in.
How you get in
- Create an account and give your name, address, and county.
- A moderator checks the voter roll and, if you are registered, writes in your precinct and districts.
- Your profile then shows your first name, last initial, town, and this:
Your street address is never shown to another member — only the moderators who review membership can see it. This site stores no voter records.
Where the precincts are
Every member is verified into a precinct — the smallest unit of local politics, and the one your ballot is actually drawn from. This map opens on a single precinct, picked out in amber; zoom out and the rest of the county is there, boundary by boundary. Click any precinct to see its ballot.
Precinct boundaries and the county line, on OpenStreetMap. No voter data of any kind — the map knows about places, never people.
What it is not
- Not a marketplace or a business directory.
- Not a safety-alert app.
- Not a national politics forum — local first, always.
