Politics for nerds

I have admired Slashdot for a long time, particularly for the way it enables a VERY grassroots community. Now through November they’ve put up a section devoted to politics, whose subtitle is “politics for nerds, your vote matters.” It’s a site I’ll keep returning to, because it promises to spread very interesting connections. Right now they’ve got links up to stories about electronic voting machines and a political stock market simulation that uses political figures as symbols — both are fascinating.
