Compare your political positions to 2008 presidential candidate positions -> VoteHelp.Org
Last summer, I began work on a project which is only now launching, VoteHelp.org. The idea is that people need a simple interface where they can input their opinions on issues and compare their positions to those of politicians. In this case, we decided to create the site in advance of the 2008 presidential election, but we're hopeful that it'll take off enough that we'll have the resources to create similar versions for local races, where information is even harder to come by.
Check it out at http://www.votehelp.org.
As a psychologist, I'm especially interested in the personality ratings that people ascribe to candidates and how that correlates with issue positions. I'll certainly share some of that data here in the future.
