Voter Education Resources

It's election time (as if you couldn't tell from the onslaught of silly campaign ads), and time to get down to the business of separating fact from fiction (as much as possible) and trying to make some educated election decisions.

To that end, here are four great, nonpartisan civic engagement resources:

• Project Vote Smart - by State:  http://www.votesmart.org/mystate_summary.php
• Open Congress: http://www.opencongress.org/
• ACLU Congressional Scorecard: http://action.aclu.org/site/VoteCenter?page=voteList
• Politifact: http://www.politifact.com/ 

There are many more at Learning is for Everyone's Civic Resources page, too.

So good luck, and vote carefully out there!
