Welcome to Vote Match

Vote Match is designed to help you with determining your voting preference at election time.

The statements - answer the statements by clicking on agree, disagree, open-minded or skip (if you want to ignore the statement entirely).

The candidates - select which candidates you would be prepared to vote for (at least three).

Results - the results screen will reveal which candidate you agree with most, other candidates will follow in descending order. You can look at the responses from each candidate in more detail by clicking on their name.

Vote Match is intended as a guide only and is not intended to give you definitive answers on which way you should vote. We encourage you to look into the candidates' policies in more detail.

Vote Match has four aims:

• To be fun.
• To inform people about the policy differences between candidates
• To encourage people to vote and so boost turnout
• To promote debate.

Vote Match is based on StemWijzer, developed by the Institute for Political Participation in the Netherlands, and can be used for a variety of elections.

If you or your organisation would like to commission one or sponsor Vote Match please do not hesitate to contact us.
