VoterCloud Version 1.0

Communities flourish when their citizens are consistently engaged in their governments. In particular, local governments can have an even bigger on the day­to­day lives of the citizens they represent than larger scale ones. However, local governments are notorious for having a dearth of community involvement. Citizens can be apathetic, uninformed, or misinformed leading to a government that is not representative of its citizens. VoterCloud is a mobile application that focuses on bridging this gap between citizens and their governments. It intends to address the issue of apathy by connecting its users and politicians in a social environment as well as the issues of being uninformed by providing election and politician information.
