Southeastern Idaho Votes

This is currently a placeholder for a new website titled “Southeastern Idaho Votes”. The objectives of this website are:

1. Show for a particular jurisdiction or entity (such as a city or a county or a school district) all of the elected offices, the current incumbent, and what the term of office is.
2. Show for a particular jurisdiction upcoming elections and the offices and issues that will be contested along with the candidates for office.
3. For an upcoming election, show information about the candidates and issues and allow public comment on the candidates and issues.
4. Provide a candidate for office who doesn’t have a web presence the ability to have a rich web page on this site.
5. Show the results of past elections.

The programming and database work for objective #1 is close to being completed. The process is being documented in another blog titled “Technology Matters“. Click on the link for regular progress updates.
