Products that do what Quick build- Vote Swapping app for more effective democracy does
This weekend I got looped in with this team that was working on a vote swapping initiative. This is where people in swing states (where votes matter more for the electoral college) agree to vote for Kamala, in exchange for people in "safe" blue states voting for their protest vote of choice. So a Free Palestine voter in Pennsylvania, agrees to vote for Harris if, say, 2 Californians agree to vote for Jill Stein (or whatever, I hope this can be a thread about technology and the electorate, not about politics). The net result is that they can cast a vote against fascism in their home (swing)…

I recently launched my first web app, polls.io. It's a super simple polling app that doesn't require sign-up. In my opinion, this is the most simple/social polling app out there. There are certainly many similar apps out there, but I think this one stands out as it straight-forward and doesn't have any unnecessary "mess" getting in the way of the actual poll. From idea to inception this took about a week. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. We'll be listening to feedback in the coming days/weeks in order to make the proper changes. I'd love to hear your guys' thoughts and feedback!…

Over the weekend we built Parliament Wow. It's hacky, buggy and slightly broken but it does the job :) Parliament Wow makes it easy to find out what is going on in parliament and what it actually means for you and me. We know that nobody has the time to watch hours of debates, drown in legal paperwork or keep up with the implications of every vote. Not me or you and least of all your MPs. There is just too much data. So we made a solution. We paired some semantic search with every publicly accessible document, audio recording or transcript we could get our hands on + some generative models…
