Find love on Election Day. Don't get catfished by candidates

Looking for a better shortcut instead of using political party, age, race, gender, or charm? CandidateMatchmaker has the familiar feel of a dating app and takes just 4-5 minutes for users to find “political matches” and who they should ghost on election day.

This is interesting because it's almost like it's taking dating and mixing it with politics! What I am curious to learn is how it matches you with the individual candidate - is based on the track record of the candidate or what they publicly say on their website?

@mgk4313 thanks Martin for the question. We use a quite a bit of research to discover and assign each candidate’s key issues and their stances. We use an amalgam of direct evidence including their campaign sites, as well as their past votes and public statements. We are in the process of engineering adding the down ballot candidates for the general election and are asking all of them to supply their own answers. Please also note, being unbiased is as important as accuracy to us so we employ politically diverse teams to mitigate any conscious or subconscious bias we might have. We pride ourselves on being apolitical and accurate.

Thanks for checking us out! This has been a passion project for me and my former students for some time. We started our nonprofit, votingsmarter, and built the #CandidateMatchmaker to help the average person make informed voting decisions. Most people simply don't have the time or the energy to watch the news every day and the sort through the BS and the bias. As a nonprofit, we and are currently fundraising to build a more robust standalone app version as well as several more tools like our MoneyMatrix and TradeoffVisualizer. Please try it out the Matchmaker at: http://bit.ly/3clw2RE Follow us on Instagram @votingsmarter And consider supporting our crowdfunding campaign at https://charity.gofundme.com/o/e... Better yet join us! We need developers and innovators, email me at terry@votingsmarter.org #Noblindvotes #Stoptheballotboxwalkofshame #Imvotingsmarter #2020vision #stopgettinggrinderedbythesystem #Findyourpoliticalmatch
