Your Government

Put this on your site

The card above is free to carry on any site: a neighborhood council's, a local paper's, a council office's. Paste this where the page should show it. An embedded card shows whatever the copy on basin.la shows, so it updates when we update the rosters.

<iframe src="https://basin.la/interactives/embed/la-your-government.html"
        title="Your Government, from The Basin"
        style="width:100%;border:0;min-height:400px" loading="lazy"
        allow="clipboard-write"></iframe>
<script>
addEventListener("message", function (e) {
  if (e.origin !== "https://basin.la" || !e.data ||
      e.data.type !== "basin-embed-height" || e.data.id !== "your-government") return;
  document.querySelectorAll("iframe").forEach(function (f) {
    if (f.contentWindow === e.source) f.style.height = e.data.height + "px";
  });
});
</script>

Copy the snippet

Two optional parameters go on the iframe src. ?theme=dark or ?theme=light pins the theme instead of following the reader's system, and ?nc= opens on one neighborhood council's shared seats, for example ?nc=silver-lake-nc. The card covers City of Los Angeles addresses and hands any other one to the county registrar's own lookup.

No key, no quota, no tracking, and nothing a reader types leaves their browser. The card carries a credit line to The Basin, and the credit must stay. Questions and corrections: data@basin.la.
