Election date

How do we calculate my vote power?

What goes into the rating: Representation: how much weight one vote carries here compared with a statewide vote — the smaller the district, the more each vote counts. Decisiveness: how likely this race is to be close, based on past results or current analyst ratings, plus the number of candidates.

Representation: High · 68 out of 100

This district is a small slice of its state, so each vote here carries much more weight than a vote in a statewide race. About 10,076 people live here.

Show the representation math

score = 50 + 50 × ln(state population ÷ this district's) ÷ ln(50,000) = 50 + 50 × ln(582,397 ÷ 10,076) ÷ ln(50,000) = 68.75, measured against a statewide vote in WY (grades: 66+ high, 33+ normal, otherwise low; a statewide race is the 50 baseline)

Decisiveness: None · only 1 candidate

One candidate is running unopposed, so votes can't change the outcome.

High representation + an uncontested race → My vote power: Below average.
