Congress is Out Until Mid-Late Jan., But Congresspedia is Open for Business

The lights at the House are out until January 15th and the Senate gets back on the 21st, but there's still plenty happening on Congresspedia. One of the most exciting is the Wiki the Vote project to build profiles on each and every candidate for Congress. Candidates, supporters, detractors and those whose motivation I haven't quite been able to discern have been showing up to add all kind of information to the profiles. Find your local candidates by going to one of the state-by-state portals at the Wiki the Vote homepage.

If you're a candidate or a campaign volunteer/staffer/supporter, we now have a handy guide that offers tips and guidelines for participating. And, of course, please contact one of the managing editors if we can help you in any way.
