This is pretty inspirational. What folks are building with YourNextMP
in the UK might become useful in many other elections.

Feel free to lend a hand in this conversation on the Poplus online

Thanks,

Hi all, here at Congreso Interactivo in Argentina we know that
elections time brings a lot of traffic to our civic sites, and we are
thinking how to harness that interest for the benefit of the local
community.
I think specially that jorunalists might be interested in having
wiki-style access to a public repository of candidate information.

Do you think YourNextMP is ready to be deployed to other countries? If
not, what would be the steps required to internationalize it?
We have the skills to do it, but we alone don't have the resources, I
think if several spanish speaking organizations get together this
could happen and we can all benefit, since this year is going to be
elections year in many latinamerican countries.

Thanks as always for your support,
Martín Szyszlican
