Far too many Austin tech employees do not know where candidates for elected office stand on issues important to them. The most robust way to find out – candidate questionnaires from community organizations – are not easy to find unless a voter already knows about a particular community group or does significant research into the causes and candidates they care about.
informed.vote fixes this by allowing users to filter community questions and answers by district, candidate, cause, or ZIP Code. Users can search all questions posed by community groups and get answers direct from the candidates – all in one place.
informed.vote is a joint project between Austin Tech Alliance and Leadership Austin.
