For this July the 4th, I thought it was appropriate that I found these links which can help to keep voters informed about their elected officials.
opengov.us is an MIT project aimed at collecting as much information about public citizens as possible. Their mission statement, and goals are little bit weird and scary, but the wealth of information they have acquired is astounding! Just click around a bit, and find your representatives, you’ll be amazed at how much information there is.
Both opensecrets.org and vote-smart.org can really help a voter drill down and find out about their elected officials. Some really interesting information there.
