Where do AI chatbots get their information about a candidate, campaign, or ballot measure and what can a campaign do when the answer is incomplete, outdated, or simply wrong? When voters ask AI about a race, the answer is assembled from a set of public sources. Platforms like Ballotpedia shape not just what voters learn about a candidate, but what AI tells them.


Join AAPC for a practical conversation on how campaigns should think about their candidate's presence in the AI information ecosystem, and what consultants can do to monitor, correct, and improve what voters find.


Key Takeaways:

  • Understand how AI systems assemble information about political candidates, and which sources they pull from.
  • Build an "AI information hygiene" process for your campaigns, and know how often to run it.
  • Spot inaccurate, incomplete, or outdated candidate information before voters see it.
  • Correct the record through legitimate channels, and recognize where correcting ends and manipulating begins
