What's on your ballot, in plain terms

Decipher a ballot question
Paste a question from your ballot and get its wording in plain language: what kind of question it is, what a Yes and a No would do, and what the legal terms mean. It does not tell you how to vote.
This is an automated reading of the words you paste, by an AI model. No person reviews the answers, and it can be wrong. It knows only what is in the text you paste: not what the law says today, not the cost, not the full measure. Always check the official text, linked for every state below. Questions are kept (never with your name or contact details) so we can write full, checked explainers for the ones people ask most. Limited to 1,000 questions a day; it reopens at midnight Eastern.
