Approval Voting elections produce a lot of data about voter preferences. Typically, this information is made available by election boards in specialized file formats and requires processing to interpret. The purpose of approval.vote is to increase transparency into these elections by creating detailed and intuitive reports about them.

With Approval Voting voters can choose as many candidates as they like, and the one receiving the most votes wins.

approval.vote is maintained by Felix Sargent. It is a fork from the original work of Paul Butler's ranked.vote. It is non-partisan and has received no outside funding.
