[Campaigns-l] Connecting people with information

[Genghis Conn]

The withdrawal of newspaper coverage from local political races and events
gives this wiki a perfect window of opportunity. More and more people are
looking online for political information (my own site stats tell me that)
and something like this could become an easier, less filtered way to connect
people with that information.

Right now, most of the political/campaign information online comes through
campaign controlled sites instead of third party sites.

It would be great to have a way to generate comparisons on certain issues.
For example, select an issue (say, property taxes) and limit to your
district, and see what positions all the candidates in that area have on it.
