Mission
Who Did I Elect?
is dedicated to aggregating and organizing data from trusted secondary sources to create a "digital profile" for every U.S. Congressman.
We aim to provide every piece of information relevant to making an informed voting decision in U.S. Congressional races. While most services provide information on a single aspect of a candidate's profile, we aim to provide every relevant piece of information you need in a single place to cast your vote.
