What We Can Do For You

Tackling the Information Deficit

According to Pew Research, a 2020 study showed about two-thirds of Americans feel worn out by the amount of news there is, while still feeling less knowledgeable. We supply tools and information to voters who want to get involved with the political process. We believe that process starts at the local and regional levels.

As a result, we focus our attention on down-ballot, primary, and special elections that directly affect your district and your community. Our non-partisan platform provides a space for all certified candidates to be found in one place and reasonably analyzed. We also aim to provide a reliable last-second resource to individuals who are moments away from casting their ballot.

Know Your Representative

We source candidates’ websites, social media, and relevant publications, which is then compiled. Guides are organized to produce an easy-to-read overview of candidates categorized by topics that matter most to constituents.

Understanding Referendums

We believe constituents must be fully aware of future implications of ballot questions. The analysis we provide includes notable proponents, opponents, and impact to primary stakeholders. Providing an opportunity for consideration and discussion.

Determining Your Goals

Research and analysis conducted for our guides are centered on evidence-based housing and urban policy, what makes a neighborhood desirable. Our guides focus on the critical topics that will aid you in boosting your community’s value.

Our Philosophy

Our philosophy focuses on each voter doing their part to promote the interests of themselves and their loved ones. From local primary elections to statewide races, kBoulevard’s digital issues guides simplify and strengthen candidate messaging on critical issues.

More Americans are getting news online than on TV, and are wary of big news, having a reputation for bias coverage.

Trust

Consumption via mobile devices are on the rise, social media is more prominent for news, but is considered untrustworthy.
