Informed Voter Guide

United States Presidential Election 2024

Hello! This guide was created with the new/ student voter in mind. This guide will point you towards resources that will not only help answer your questions about voting, but help you become more informed about the candidates and issues on your ballot. Voting is important and just like an assignment, you will want to do some research to be prepared for when you vote. 

In this guide you can: 

• Learn about the newspaper subscriptions the UCI Libraries provides (under "UCI Libraries and Web Resources box)
• Check your news source to see where it falls under reliability and bias ("Interactive Media Bias Chart" under  "UCI Libraries and Web Resources" box )
• Look through the many resources where you can look up sample ballots (Ballotpedia & BallotReady), fact-checking sites that focus on politics (FactCheck.org & Politifact), and other resources that can help you decide the way you want to vote (Under the "Informed Voter Resources" box)
• find answers to general voting registration questions that are tailored towards new voters and student voters ("Voter Registration FAQ" tab)
