    Yes ballotpedia is good, but I still wish it had more information about local (city, county) governments as well as judges. These ones are the hardest and most time consuming to research.

    I also used https://www.ballotready.org/ it helps with some candidates, but looks like ballotpedia most of the time still has more info.

      I found limited, but useful information from my state bar association about the judges running on my ballot.

        Will try to find mine.

        Honestly though I think that judges should be appointed by governor, maybe approved by legislature and during election we should have option to repeal them if they do something outrageous.
