Our Mission

Electr aims to increase civic engagement and education through a “Tinder-style” swiping format on dozens of different policy questions that match users with the politician that best reflects their beliefs. We employ a “Percentage Variable Weighting System”, modeled after the popular voter guide, ISideWith, to ensure our metric is accurate and nonpartisan.
