Election Desk is an independent journalism project focused on clear, accurate coverage of U.S. elections.
Producing reliable election reporting takes time, research, and sustained effort. Much of the work happens quietly — reviewing documents, tracking court cases, explaining complex processes, and updating coverage as facts change.
Election Desk exists because readers value clarity over noise and context over outrage.
How Election Desk Is Funded
Election Desk may be supported through a combination of:
- Reader subscriptions
- Voluntary contributions
- Sponsored content that is clearly labeled
- Limited advertising or partnerships consistent with our editorial standards
We do not accept funding that dictates coverage, conclusions, or editorial direction.
Editorial Independence
Financial support does not influence:
- What stories we cover
- How we report them
- The conclusions we reach
Election Desk does not coordinate with political parties, campaigns, or advocacy organizations. Our reporting decisions are made independently, based on public interest and verifiable information.
Sponsored Content and Partnerships
From time to time, Election Desk may publish sponsored or partner-supported content. When this occurs:
- Sponsored content is clearly labeled
- Editorial content remains separate from sponsorship
- Sponsors do not review or approve editorial coverage
We do not sell favorable coverage or suppress reporting in exchange for financial support.
Why Reader Support Matters
Election coverage often demands:
- Legal and procedural research
- Careful sourcing
- Updates as court decisions and election rules evolve
- Long-term tracking beyond election night
Reader support helps sustain this work and allows Election Desk to remain independent, accessible, and focused on public understanding.
How to Support Election Desk
Readers who find value in Election Desk may support the project by:
- Subscribing to the Election Desk Brief
- Becoming a paid subscriber, when available
- Sharing our work with others
- Supporting our reporting through voluntary contributions
Support is optional. Access to core election information remains a priority.
Transparency
Election Desk is committed to transparency in funding and operations. Questions about funding, sponsorships, or editorial independence may be submitted through our contact page.
