Performance

  • Not measured
    Fast (p50)

    Median latency 2007 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    1 of 1 attempts returned a tool list in 30 days (100%). The bar is 99%. Need at least 30 samples.

  • Not measured
    Stable tool list

    Fewer than two successful probes in 30 days, so tool-list stability is not measured.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured
    Standard auth

    Auth is not required, so the OAuth metadata check does not apply.

    Safety hints

    Every tool sets readOnlyHint or destructiveHint.

Publisher

  • Pass
    Verified namespace

    Listed in the Official MCP Registry.

    This namespace is not a reverse domain, so the website comparison does not apply.

Capabilities

Tools 6

get_campaign_finance

Retrieve published 2026 federal campaign receipts, spending, cash, debts, linked committees and separately labeled outside-spending totals for an FEC candidate ID. Returns reporting periods, sources and coverage limits. Campaign balances are not a candidate's personal net worth. Contributions do not establish influence or wrongdoing. Missing financial summaries remain null.

Discovered
get_election_calendar

Return the published 2026 federal general election date and congressional primary/runoff schedule, optionally filtered to a state's public election jurisdiction. Source dates and tentative/changeable status are included. Does not include every local election, registration deadline or polling location; confirm actionable dates with the state's election authority.

Discovered
get_election_results

Retrieve source-backed U.S. House and Senate results for an explicitly requested year. The archive currently covers 2016, 2018, 2020, 2022 and 2024. Other years return an unsupported-year error, never substituted historical results. Includes votes, sources, record links and calculation caveats. Not live returns, projections or presidential results.

Discovered
search_candidates

Search Election.org's 2026 FEC candidate filings by public name or FEC ID, state, office, or district. Returns party, filing status, available campaign totals, source dates and record links. FEC records stay in data.records. A separately sourced data.state_authority_records list currently adds Mississippi federal qualifying entries, including candidates with no matched FEC ID. Check both collections; neither proves final ballot certification or complete nationwide/local coverage. Do not request federal finance for a null FEC ID. Federal filings are ordered by reported receipts, not an endorsement. No party is excluded.

Discovered
search_governments

Search named cities, counties, school systems and special districts in Election.org's Census-based public-body directory. Returns source-backed institution records, available office contacts and enriched coverage, with record links. Similar names can refer to different jurisdictions. Directory inclusion does not establish current officials or exact service boundaries. Does not locate a user's home or provide private personal contacts.

Discovered
search_offices

Search permanent public offices and their sourced holders by official name, office title, or jurisdiction. Federal, state, executive and selected local coverage is included; local coverage is incomplete and source verification dates must be retained. Not an address-to-representative lookup. A missing holder is not proof of a vacancy.
