This PSA promotes free, nonpartisan ballot education for New York voters. It directs voters to VoteMate, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit civic technology platform, where they can access plain-language explanations of every candidate and measure on their specific ballot at no cost. This PSA is designed to reach New Yorkers who have historically faced barriers to full ballot participation — including youth and first-time voters, older adults, immigrants and non-native English speakers, voters with disabilities, justice-impacted voters, and LGBTQ+ voters. The creative centers on a shared experience across these communities: feeling like the ballot wasn't made for you. VoteMate addresses that directly by providing free, nonpartisan, plain-language breakdowns of every race and measure — no prior knowledge required, no cost, no agenda.
