1. Also, the way the app works & what's displayed, it seems to be used by a lot of left leaning people which gives me an unrealistic impression of the way things will go at the polls.Great app! I like it a lot, so much so that I have recommended it to family and friends! It's very useful and informative; bias in polling, as others have mentioned.
2. I love how the app shows me which past elections I've voted in, but I wish there were more voter search parameters (such as age range).Developer said the app only applies to cities with "5000 people or more" Looking for the correct and up-to-date local elections so I don't miss any.
3. The only thing that I could recommend to make it better would be to consider adding state bills/amendments that the people have to vote on.(i.e. Should the following be adopted...Yes/No) I know that's more research and work, but it would be totally worth it!It's a great app to use.
4. There does seem to be a progressive bias, but only in polling percentages, which makes sense considering this is an app; something a young person is more likely to interact with, but anyone can use this app regardless of political affiliation.Interesting but limited info.
5. Zero stars, if I could.It happens every year when people forget to vote when it's the primary election or the ballad absentees of which State your in.
6. When does the voting starts and when does it end to avoid longer lines to complete a check list on who wins the election? Go to the nearest Library in Wisconsin and don't forget to bring your State Identification with you at all times.
7. Only thing I see that needs improvement now is more candidate information and a wider variety of places to get info from (that have been vetted as unbiased of course).
8. No intrusive ads, fairly easy to use and incentivises return visits to help you stay informed on important issues, upcoming elections, and candidates.
9. It also is deceiving on their 'vote on a bill' feature because it only includes a portion that they think the voter will agree when in reality the bill contains multiple portions you disagree with.
10. Wish we could view more info about candidates, how they voted in the past (maybe a history of votes?), and how they answered certain questions.
11. Otherwise, AMAZING!! Love the options to "vote" on bills and have multiple selections for candidates.
