These sites, designed to help voters explore political candidates, provide a nice starting point for determining candidates' positions with cited (mostly) statements they've made on various issues.
Politicians are likely to have both a personally-managed website as well as an official government profile page. For example, Ted Cruz has TedCruz.org, his campaign site, as well as a Senate page.
You can limit results to certain domains by adding site: to your search terms, e.g.: Ted Cruz site:.gov.
These are particularly helpful if you keep running into paywalls online.
