W3C Open Government Community Group,

I think that there is something to Web-based and desktop-based information dashboards and decision support systems for voters. Such decision support systems could aggregate election news articles and provide data visualization with respect to local, state and national elections.

I recently started some discussions about a new contest pertaining to the design of voter decision support systems. I indicated that there should be a well-publicized and periodic, e.g. annual, contest of designs and design concepts. I indicated that we would want to facilitate the best new designs and design concepts with advancements to Web standards including news article metadata and schema.

We could also facilitate the best new ideas with advancements to open government data, with advancements to data.gov .
