Voter-driven legislation balancing system for supporting deliberative democracy

摘要

A voter-driven system for supporting deliberative democracy reports legislative bills to voters, allows interaction among the voters to share and find common interests and create voter movements, disseminates voter movements and/or influencing action information to the voters, and aggregates the voter movements and/or influencing actions in a district aggregation database and/or a national database. The system communicates to legislators information about voter movements and/or influencing actions and provides the voters and/or voter movements with information of actions by legislators and the effect of the voter influencing tools on the actions. The system may include a snap voting system and may provide the voters with rewards for voter participation in voter movements and/or influencing actions. The system may provide a scorecard reporting a legislator's voting record relative to a voter's interests and influencing actions. The system may also allow voters to initiate and modify a legislative initiative and monitor a legislator's response to the initiative.
