PropVS · Version 1

My Country. My State. Time to Decide.

Where It Began

PropVS began in October 2026 as an independent, nonpartisan election information project focused on California's November 3, 2026 statewide election.

The idea was simple: bring official election information together, show different perspectives side by side, and leave the decision to the voter.

1. October 21, 2026The name PropVS is chosen.
2. October 22, 2026Work begins on the first version: an English, searchable, side-by-side reader for California's statewide measures and candidates.
3. October 26, 2026The last release of Version 1 goes live on propvs.com.
4. November 3, 2026California votes.
5. November 2026Version 2 replaces it on propvs.com, with a framework for all 50 states and Washington, D.C. California is still the first state with published election content.

This page remembers where that journey started: the first version, the early experiments, the challenges, and the belief that useful information should be easier to find and understand.

Read both sides. Decide for yourself.
