With election’s tomorrow, building an informed democracy is on a lot of minds.

Whether you’re a first-time reader or frequent MuckRock filer, we want to hear from you about how we can make our news, resource, and service more useful. Take the 2018 MuckRock Survey to share your thoughts — and you’ll get a chance to win some free swag or a gift certificate!
