CityClub, UW offer Living Voters Guide
Image
With the 2011 General Election upon us, we encourage voters to educate themselves as much as possible about candidates and issues before they cast their ballot. Here is another information source for voters to utilize.
CityClub has partnered with the University of Washington’s Center for Communication & Civic Engagement and its Department of Computer Science and Engineering to produce the Living Voters Guide, a web-based resource to advance digital democracy in our state.
New this year, the Living Voters Guide will be available to all Washington voters with county and local measures as well as statewide ones. (Typing in your zip code to the system will let it present the measures relevant for you; for example, Seattle residents will be invited to weigh in on the pros and cons of the proposed Families and Education Levy.)
Check out this news release from CityClub about the Living Voters Guide and what it hopes to accomplish.
