The website regularly has news updates, usually about a topic related to elections, such as campaign announcements or retirements. For example, in the lead-up to the 2020 election, Drew Savicki, 270toWin elections and politics contributor, as well as Seth Moskowitz before him, is writing weekly articles on the competitiveness of each state in the [[Electoral College]].
There are several types of maps users can create. These include:
* [[2020 United States presidential election|2020 presidential election]]
* [[2020 Democratic Party presidential primaries|2020 Democratic primary]]
* [[2020 Republican Party presidential primaries|2020 Republican primary]]

Elected Officials Lookup|url=https://www.270towin.com/elected-officials/|website=270toWin.com|access-date=2020-05-28}}</ref>
The website uses three different electoral forecasters: [[Sabato's Crystal Ball]], [[The Cook Political Report|Cook Political Report]], and [[Stuart Rothenberg|Inside Elections]]. There is also a fourth option, which is a consensus between the three [[pundit]]s, that is generally used as the starting map.

The website also has useful information about elections and the political system, such as presidential electoral results dating back to 1789, pundit forecasts, voting history and trends by state (dating back to statehood), polling data, live updates during elections, and other useful information such as a lookup by zip code of elected representatives.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Who Represents Me?
