Custom Legislative Districts let you upload your own GeoJSON boundary files to define district sets that are meaningful to your organization, such as city council wards, school board zones, or state legislative districts. Once imported, districts appear on member profiles, are available as a People filter, and can be used to scope Call Legislator and Email Legislator actions.

💡

Plan requirement: Custom Legislative Districts are available on the Professional and Enterprise plans. If your plan does not include the feature, Settings shows no 'Legislative Districts' link.

Setting Up a District Set

District sets are managed from Settings > Legislative Districts. Click Upload districts to start a new set.

1. Enter a name for the district set (e.g., "City Council Wards").
2. Upload a GeoJSON file with the district boundaries.
3. Map the properties in your file to the district fields. Only the District identifier is required. You can also map the district name and the representative's name, phone, and email.
4. Click Import Districts.

Prepare the file this way:

• It is a GeoJSON FeatureCollection where each feature is one district, with a Polygon or MultiPolygon geometry.
• A single upload supports up to 750 features.
• Coordinates must be longitude and latitude in WGS84 (EPSG:4326). A feature in a projected coordinate system is skipped. If your source data is in Shapefile format, convert it to GeoJSON (for example with QGIS) before uploading.

Viewing and Editing Districts

Each district set has its own page with a map of the boundaries and a table of districts. Click a cell in the table to edit a district's name or its representative's contact details.

Contact Targeting

On the set page, under 'Contact targeting', Allow calling these representatives and Allow emailing these representatives add the set to the Call Legislators and Email Legislators pickers. Both toggles are off after import.

The Active toggle controls whether the set appears at all: on member profiles, in People filters, and in the call and email pickers. Turning it off hides the set everywhere without deleting it.

When a set is active, a Legislative Districts section on a member's profile shows every district they fall within. Members are matched by their geocoded address. A member with no geocoded address gets no districts.

Deleting a District Set

You cannot delete a single district, only the entire set. On Settings > Legislative Districts, click Delete in the row of the set. Then confirm the message.

⚠️

Warning: Deleting a district set removes its districts from all member profiles and cannot be undone.
