Over 9,000 students and staff have built Vote Smart’s ISPY, located on VoteSmart.org. This tool is found at the top of VoteSmart.org’s homepage and provides any citizen instant access to the public records on almost 11,555 candidates for president, congress, governor, or state legislature. It is a free, fast, and accurate way to get the facts about thousands of politicians campaigning to make the laws that regulate our lives.

Each candidate has six files that can be opened and reviewed:

Biography, Voting Record, Issue Positions, Public Statements, Special Interests’ Ratings, and Campaign Contributors.

Please share ISPY with all those you know who want to Vote Smart this November 3rd.
