Sound familiar?
Juggling disconnected campaign tools?
One for contacts. One for the website. One for email. One for canvassing. One spreadsheet duct-taped to all of it. Moving lists between tools takes time. Review imports and handoffs to keep campaign records current.

Claimed profiles can receive follower notifications. Following is not permission for campaign outreach.
Three products. One platform.
Poll City Social —where the public lives.
While your campaign app manages your operations, Poll City Social is the public-facing civic platform. Voters follow officials, respond to polls, join interest groups, and track their community's promises. When they follow you, your claimed profile can receive a notification. Following never silently adds a voter to your CRM or starts campaign outreach.
937 Canadian officials
Federal, provincial, and municipal — already profiled and searchable.
Live approval ratings
Voters rate performance. You see the numbers. So do they.
Civic polls
Explore public questions and results, and check your account's posting options.
Public interest, with consent
Claimed profiles can receive follower notifications. A follow stays social and never creates a CRM lead or grants contact permission by itself.
For elected officials
Already in office? Look for your public profile.
Explore the public directory of Canadian elected officials. Find your profile, check its details, and follow the claim process. If you run again, create or review your campaign workspace separately.
Federal MPs
Explore federal representatives.
Ontario MPPs
Find provincial representatives.
Mayors
Look up municipal leadership.
Councillors
Discover local council members.
Built for every level
From your first campaign to your fifth term.
Whether you're a first-time school board candidate or an incumbent mayor preparing a re-election — Poll City is built for your race, your scale, and your budget.
The first-time candidate
You're announcing soon. You need a website, a way to track supporters, and a system your volunteers can actually use. Poll City guides the team through one connected setup.
The incumbent running again
Bring your existing contacts, team, and public record into your campaign setup. Review contact preferences and plan follow-up across your website, CRM, and communications.
The mayor's office
You're running city-wide. You need a war room, scrutineer management, real-time poll tracking on election night, and a team that can execute at scale.
