The University of Virginia Center for Politics (CfP) is a nonpartisan institute at the University of Virginia. Based in Charlottesville, Virginia, the institute promotes the value of politics and the importance of civic engagement. It operates on the principle that 'government works better when politics works better, and politics works better when citizens are informed and involved participants'. Founded in 1998 by professor and political analyst Larry Sabato, the institute is housed in Montesano, on property once owned by United States Senator Thomas S. Martin, and functions with the funding support from a variety of public and private sources. Alongside its focus on civic education and engagement, the CfP also publishes Sabato's Crystal Ball, a source of comprehensive election analysis which is recognized as providing the most accurate electoral predictions.
