Our goal is to connect voters with candidates who have similar political views and agendas. We hope to create an interface that allows users to learn more about political issues and clarify their positions while simplifying the voting process by providing logisitical support on election day.

A user wants to align her political opinions with those of the candidate that most closely matches her values. She moves through a series of policy statements, without seeing the candidate that represents each position. By stretching or shrinking the policy statement to express agreement or disproval, she is provided information that matches her with a candidate.
