Factual Reporting: HIGH. Notes: Vote Smart, formerly called Project Vote Smart (PVS), is a non-profit, non-partisan research organization that collects and distributes information on candidates for public office in the United States.
Vote Smart's Vote Easy is the 'Match.com' of Politics. With all of the negative campaign advertising on television and radio leading up to Election Day, voters can get lost in the noise. Project Vote Smart is helping to cut through that though with a free online resource for voters called Vote Easy. Itâs a quiz of sorts to help you figure out which candidate most closely aligns with your stances on certain issues.
