Editorial note for journalists

The People's Ledger is in active development. It does not currently publish election results, make vote projections, or declare winners. Its current function is civic information, voter verification guidance, and volunteer coordination.

The citizen result verification layer — where voters record and cryptographically hash their witnessed polling unit results — is under development and will be launched ahead of the 2027 election cycle.
