The big picture

4,515 candidates are standing for election on 4 July. But who are they? Using our candidate database, we’ve taken a look at the demographics and past electoral histories of the people asking for your vote. What’s the gender split? How old are they? How many have previously stood for election, or been elected? What’s their favourite biscuit?! Read the blog to find out.

Our reach

We have answered over 10 million requests for election information from UK voters since the Prime Minister’s announcement on 22 May.

This election, our candidate data has been used by MRP polling sites such as Electoral Calculus , YouGov and the Financial Times. Our tools have allowed journalists to give accurate, detailed information about the election to their readers and viewers, across newspapers, radio and television.

Thanks to our amazing volunteers, our database now contains photos for 95% general election candidates, weblinks for 89%, statements to voters for 54%, and manifestos for more than 40 different political parties.

General elections are the start, not the end

This week, voters from across the UK are relying on Democracy Club to help them find their polling station and candidates. Whether you access our data directly through our postcode lookup on WhereDoIVote.co.uk or WhoCanIVoteFor.co.uk, or via the Electoral Commission, BBC, or dozens of other partners, we are working hard to provide an accessible and accurate source of information.

But general elections are only one of the many types of elections we cover. Every year our services provide information on local elections and by-elections in every part of the country.

Behind the scenes, we partner with the Electoral Commission and build relationships with electoral administrators and other technology providers to understand challenges and opportunities, and make recommendations to improve the UK’s election infrastructure. Every day, our dedicated community of volunteers update candidate and election information that allows voters to cut through the noise and make informed decisions about their ballot.

Democracy Club is a long-term project. Our successes in this general election were made possible because we started planning for this moment in 2013.
