The newest Snap Mini is aimed at encouraging its younger users in the U.S. to consider running for local office.

The Run for Office Mini is powered with information from BallotReady on more than 75,000 upcoming elections on the federal, state and local levels, and Snapchatters can search for potential opportunities to become candidates based on the issues that interest them the most.

Snapchatters in the U.S. can access the tool by opening the application and swiping down on the camera screen to access the list of Minis, or by searching for “Run for Office” in the app.

In addition to exploring potential opportunities for themselves, users can nominate friends who they see as good fits for roles.
