Nonpartisan by designOur editorial standards

Nonpartisan

Mobilize LA does not endorse candidates, parties, or political positions. Every candidate and measure is presented with equal space and the same analytical framework.

Education vs. Endorsement

Our "Black LA Lens" and "Artist Lens" sections explain how a policy has historically affected these communities. They describe impact, not preference. We tell you what a vote means, not how to cast it.

Sources

Candidate information is drawn from official campaign filings, public voting records, and verified press coverage. Ballot measure summaries are based on the official CA Legislative Analyst Office analyses.

Your choice, fully yours

No algorithm, no nudge, no hidden ranking. Every tool on this site is designed to inform your decision, not shape it.

Mobilize LA is a civic engagement initiative of Support Black Theatre. We are not affiliated with any candidate, campaign, political party, or government agency.
