Corrections
We don't edit their words.
We fix the record.
If a quote is mis-attributed, a link is dead, an office is wrong, or a date is off — tell us. We'll check it against the primary source and update with a citation, usually inside a day.
How it works
- 01
You spot an error
Wrong office, broken link, outdated quote, mislabeled party. Use the Report an error button on any candidate page — or email info@whoisrunning.org.
- 02
We check the primary source
We verify against the candidate's own site, official filing, recorded vote, or video. If the source supports the correction, the fix goes in.
- 03
Fix lands, sourced
The update is published with a link to where it came from. We never edit a candidate's own words — we only fix attribution, links, and offices.
What we'll change
- Wrong office or seat (e.g. House → Senate)
- Broken or moved campaign-site links
- Misattributed quote — wrong speaker or wrong publication
- Outdated party affiliation after a switch
- Mistyped name, date, or district
What we won't change
- A candidate's own statement — even if it's wrong
- Editorial characterizations — we don't write any
- Removal of a verbatim quote we sourced correctly
- Anything not tied to a verifiable source
The standard
We'd rather show nothing than show something we can't cite. If you find something here without a source, that's a bug — please report it.
