A JUST-LAUNCHED, NON-PARTISAN WEB-PORTAL BY "VOTESANE PAC" AIMS TO EMPOWER THE ELECTORATE, IN A UNIQUE WAY.  FOUNDER ROB ZIMMER DISCUSSES WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT...

(ZIMMER):
"
WE DESIGNED 'VOTESANE' AS A USER-FRIENDLY, ONE-STOP DESTINATION THAT CONTAINS NEWS, DATA, AND INSIGHTS--AS WELL AS A CHANCE TO INFLUENCE GOVERNMENT, BY DONATING TO CANDIDATES AND CAUSES, DIRECTLY FROM OUR SITE.  NOW, NOT ONLY CAN VOTERS SEE WHAT THEIR ELECTED-OFFICIALS ARE SAYING--AND HOW THEY'RE VOTING--BUT REGULAR FOLKS [ALSO] GET THE SAME ACCESS AS HEAVY-HITTER INSIDERS, BY DONATING TO A INCUMBENT--OR, INSTEAD, A CHALLENGER.  'VOTESANE' ALSO PROVIDES SOCIAL-MEDIA CONTENT, ON-SITE POLLING, AND EVEN VOTER-REGISTRATION.  OUR GOAL IS SIMPLE: [TO] HELP MORE AMERICANS PARTICIPATE IN OUR DEMOCRATIC-PROCESS--ALL WITH A FEW CLICKS OF A MOUSE.
"
