The Committee of Seventy, Pennsylvania’s leading nonpartisan organization dedicated to transparency and government integrity, announced the launch of its updated Interactive Voter Guide, available at ballot.seventy.org, designed to help voters prepare for the November 4, 2025 General Election.
The free, easy-to-use resource allows voters to compare candidates, review ballot questions, and generate a personalized sample ballot based on their home address. The tool provides reliable, nonpartisan information on both local and statewide races and will expand in the coming weeks to include additional counties across the Commonwealth.
This year, voters will decide on the retention of judges for the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, as well as seats on the Superior and Commonwealth Courts. The guide also offers detailed information about municipal and county offices in key counties including Allegheny, Bucks, Chester, Delaware, Montgomery, and Philadelphia.
Candidates from across the state have been invited to participate in the initiative. As they submit their responses, the guide features their biographies, campaign information, and positions in their own words, giving voters direct access to their priorities and platforms.
“Informed voters are the foundation of a healthy democracy, and every Pennsylvanian deserves the tools to make their voice heard,” said Lauren Cristella, president and CEO of the Committee of Seventy. She added that the organization remains committed to innovating civic resources that provide voters with the confidence they need to cast their ballots.
The platform is mobile-friendly for use on phones and tablets and includes materials for educators, community groups, and media outlets to help share the guide widely and encourage voter participation.
Key election dates for Pennsylvania voters include October 20 as the last day to register; October 28 at 5 p.m. as the deadline to apply for a mail ballot; November 4 as Election Day, with polls open from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m.; and the same day at 8 p.m. as the deadline for counties to receive completed mail ballots.
With more than 100 years of history, the Committee of Seventy has been a leader in promoting government ethics and fair elections. Its mission is to ensure that every eligible voter is informed, participates with confidence, and strengthens democracy in the process. “When more people vote with confidence, our communities and democracy are stronger,” Cristella concluded.
