Far too many Central Texans do not know where candidates for elected office stand on issues important to them. The most robust ways 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. |What if residents had a way to filter community questions by candidate, cause, or ZIP Code? We've created Informed.vote, a place where residents are able to search all questions posed by community groups and get answers direct from the candidates - all in one place. Come learn about the ways you can be a more informed voter. We'll also be transforming The Center for Social Innovation into a voter registration hub! Come turn out to vote this Tuesday.
