Getting Started
Elected Official Lookup Pages are accessed through the Pages tab in the Online Actions dashboard. This feature is available with the Advocacy package and allows you to create pages where supporters can look up their elected officials based on their address.
Feature Details
Elected Official Lookup Pages serve as both an educational resource and a practical tool for offline advocacy efforts such as writing letters, planning office visits, or organizing lobby days. The functionality works similarly to Advocacy Forms, determining which elected officials represent a supporter based on their address information. When supporters visit your published page and enter their address, they receive a list of their elected officials along with relevant contact information.
The lookup results show basic contact information for each official, with an option to view additional details like committee assignments and alternative office locations by clicking "More..." in the results. This creates a seamless experience for supporters who need to connect with their representatives through various channels beyond just online actions.

Tracking Your Success
Since Elected Official Lookup Pages are primarily informational tools rather than action pages, they don't include specific tracking metrics. However, you can use standard page analytics to monitor how frequently supporters are accessing this resource, which can help you gauge interest in offline advocacy opportunities.
