This works particularly well if you’re mostly a single issue voter. If you’re about the environment above all else, for instance, the Sierra Club’s recommendations are pretty solid. If it’s guns, guns and only guns, the NRA is your group.
For small local races you might have to do some homework yourself though, Sierra Club doesn’t always discuss who is running for your local school board.
They’ll usually have a website and other online presences that’ll let you get a sense for what they stand for. If its a really, really small community, maybe just send them an email or phone call and ask them.

This. The League of Women Voters is really good at doing summaries about candidate positions. And while they obviously have an agenda, they tend to be pretty level-headed about their analyses, and avoid rhetoric.

Of course they have agenda. Thay aren’t called “The League of Nonbinary Voters”.
