Works with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and more

The Model Context Protocol standardizes how applications expose capabilities to LLMs. Instead of operating in isolation, your AI gains direct access to external platforms, live data, and real-world actions through secure, standardized connections.

This connection provides 5 powerful capabilities that interface natively with Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other compatible AI platforms. No middleware. No custom integration required.

Coordinating civic outreach used to be a nightmare.

Think about it: planning an event requires juggling multiple tabs. You have to check the county website for polling addresses; then you open the state election portal to find registration deadlines, and finally, you might need a separate municipal site just to see what's on the ballot. It’s tedious copy-pasting, constant context switching, and high risk of using outdated info.

With this MCP, your agent handles all that cross-referencing in one conversation. You ask it for polling locations near an address or registration deadlines for a state, and you get clean, structured data back. It takes the research out of the process.

The vote.direct MCP gives you verifiable, actionable election intelligence.

You eliminate the need to manually check multiple government domains or rely on outdated spreadsheets compiled by hand. The data comes from a single source and is structured for immediate use.

What's different now? You just talk to your agent. It handles the complex logic of finding, auditing, and compiling disparate civic facts into one readable answer.

What your AI can actually do with this

This MCP connects your agent directly to civic participation data, letting you run deep audits on local election systems without needing manual research. You can instantly check what the rules are in a given state by querying registration deadlines or map out all planned elections for a specific ZIP code.

It’s about moving from hours of clicking through government portals to one natural conversation.

For example, if you're organizing a campaign across multiple states, your agent can gather everything needed—from polling center addresses to the exact contents of local ballots—and compile it instantly. The true power comes when you chain this MCP with other services; for instance, building an automation that first checks eligibility using get_registration_details, then uses those results to trigger a messaging service via another connected MCP.

This entire workflow runs reliably through Vinkius's zero-trust proxy, meaning your keys are used only in transit and never stored on a disk.

Questions you might have

How do I find polling locations using get_polling_locations? +

You just tell it a street address. The tool returns detailed metadata about the nearest voting sites, including their operating hours and name.

What is the best way to check registration deadlines with get_registration_details? +

Simply provide the state name. It retrieves the official deadline and provides links needed for compliance planning right away.

Can I use vote.direct to find elections in a whole region? +

Yes, you can run get_upcoming_elections by providing a ZIP code. This lists multiple scheduled events and their dates for that area.

Do I need to worry about the data being current? How do I check the status? +

You can use check_api_status. Running this query confirms whether the entire election data service is currently active and operational before you start any audits.

How do I set up authentication when using get_upcoming_elections? +

You provide your unique vote.direct API key during the Vinkius setup process. Your agent handles all calls securely through this connection, so you never deal with raw credentials in your workflow.

If I use get_polling_locations and no sites are found, how does the agent report that error? +

The agent won't throw a hard failure. Instead, it reports a clear 'No polling locations found for this address,' telling you exactly why nothing was returned without stopping your conversation.

What specific details does the get_ballot_information tool need to accurately retrieve ballot data? +

It requires two key pieces of information: a definite election identifier and a precise address. Providing both ensures the agent pulls legislative items relevant only to that exact location.

Are there usage limits if I run get_upcoming_elections many times? +

The Vinkius platform manages quotas and monitors API consumption for you. If your calls approach a limit, the system alerts your agent before failure, ensuring minimal workflow disruption.

How do I find my vote.direct API Key? +

Log in to your vote.direct dashboard, register for an API Key, and you will find it in your account settings. Copy and paste it below.

Does it show the specific items on the ballot? +

Yes. The get_ballot_information tool retrieves the specific measures and candidates that will appear on the ballot for a given address.

Can the agent check registration deadlines? +

Yes. Use the get_registration_details tool providing the state code. Your agent will return the official deadlines and registration links instantly.
