Methodology

Vote Compass is a civic engagement application developed by the team of social and data scientists from Vox Pop Labs. Its objective is to promote electoral literacy and public participation during election campaigns.

Based on a user’s responses to a series of propositions that reflect salient aspects of the campaign discourse, Vote Compass calculates the alignment between the user’s personal views and the positions of the political parties.
