How do I learn about the candidates I am voting for?
user
The best way to learn about the candidates is to read their official policies and statements, which are available online. There are also debates, news articles, and sometimes “town halls” that are open to the public where you can ask them questions.

But how do I know if the statements they make are actually true?
user
If a policy seems wrong or untrue, there are ways to check and see if it is. Some campaigns offer tools to help with this, like pledge trackers and fact checkers. You could also call or email the campaign. Finally, you can vote for someone who you trust to do what’s right and hope they’ll do it.

Okay, any other advice?

I’d recommend reading news articles about the candidates and campaigns to inform your vote. Sometimes you can choose between several good candidates, and this can be a good thing. Think of it as a way to spread your votes around. Also, just keep in mind that the policies you read will usually be general policies, and you don’t have to follow them exactly.

You should research some of the issues you care about. Then you can figure out which candidate’s policies will help you, and which are bad.
