- The computer is now being used as a way to correct the bias introduced
- into political campaigns by the television media.
-
- Project Vote Smart is making available through the use of a 800 number what
- the candidates (congressional) true positions are on the issues no matter
- what their sound bites say.
-
- The project has accumulated voting records, campaign financing, and
- position statements of the candidate and is making this information
- available.
-
- Call 1800 786 6885 to get information about your favorite candidate.
-
- and this project is not being funded by political parties, PACs, or
- corporations. And it is not biased either left or right
-
