How Ballot Quiz works

How rounds are made

Each round is a real statewide ballot measure, summarized in our own plain words. Results and yes percentages come from official results. Where the state publishes a certified statement of the vote, the page says certified result; older and some other figures are compiled from official records and say compiled figure. Each measure's page shows the share of yes votes it needed. The last round each day, The Shocker, is a close result: slide to the yes percentage you expect, and calling it within five points earns a bonus.

Fair play and player figures

• Every round has one known answer from a public record, with its source and the date it was checked.
• Answers stay on the server until you guess, and the server keeps the clock.
• Player percentages appear only once an item has at least 100 counted answers. They describe players of this game, not the public. It is not a poll.
• Each network counts at most 3 answers per item, only answers from US networks count, and hosting-provider networks never count. None of this changes your own score or streak.
