Apologies for the light posting here lately – I’ve been busy with the Political Innovation project. There’s a series of posts I’ve added there on ‘What Politicians need to know about social public information.’ I’ll be reviving this blog shortly. In the meantime, here’s something on electronic voting that I found via O’Conall Street.
- A blog about representative democracy, social media and a conversational politics. How will peer-to-peer communications change local democracy? How is representation changing? Picture Credits.
