Elections are Tuesday: Explore our voter guide here

Mayors and city council members are on the ballot in nonpartisan races across Ada and Canyon counties. Three school districts are asking voters for money, two Caldwell school trustees face recalls, Meridian wants money for libraries, and Boise wants money for Foothills land purchases.

To inform your decisions, the Statesman has again compiled an online Voter Guide. Use it to look up which candidates and measures you can vote on, see the candidates' pictures, learn about their backgrounds, and compare their views on issues in their own words. You can link to candidates' websites and social media accounts, and to instructions for registering and voting. Follow this link to reach the guide.

Need to know where to go to vote? At IdahoVotes.gov, you can look up your polling place and whether you are already a registered voter. Idaho allows same-day voter registration.
