<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I agree with George. As far as more
advanced integration, that really depends on what you are wanting
to do. Drupal is used heavily in government sites (including
congressional). You might want to take a look at openpublic for
some ideas:<br>

For data, there is also the Sunlight Foundation module, which
pulls in data from the numerous API's Sunlight Foundation offers:<br>

<div dir="ltr">What is the difference between a voter guide and a
blog with the comments turned off? Seems to me that your
solution is already built into Drupal. If you want an online
poll, that is available as a module for Drupal. If you want a
practice ballot, that could be done through themes and a simple
form. This is really very simple, and could even be done without
Drupal. Seems to me that the real challenge in this project is
simply getting the content right. I suspect you would want
position papers for the available candidates. Some character and
work history might be in order. <br>
