Vote Compass is an online educational tool that promotes electoral literacy and democratic engagement. The tool allows users to receive information regarding the positions of political parties or candidates for office during a given election. Vote Compass is intended to be designed to provide users with a personalized, immediate, and easy-to-understand assessment outlining how their individual opinions on a sampling of policy issues situate them within a two-dimensional ideological space and vis-à-vis the political parties running for office.
Vote Compass was piloted at the outset of the 2011 Canadian federal election campaign in partnership with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. It attracted nearly two million respondents during its inaugural five-week run. It has since been commissioned by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation for the 2011 Ontario provincial election, the 2012 Alberta provincial election, the 2012 Quebec provincial election, the 2013 British Columbia provincial election, the 2014 Quebec provincial election, the 2014 Ontario provincial election, the 2014 Toronto mayoral election, and the 2015 Alberta provincial election.
Vote Compass was also commissioned by The Wall Street Journal for the 2012 U.S. Presidential election, by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation for the 2013 and 2016 Australian federal election, and by Television New Zealand in partnership with New Zealand Electoral Commission for the 2014 New Zealand general election.
