About the Initiatives

  1. Candidate Comparison Platform
    The Candidate Comparison Platform presents a detailed, side-by-side comparison of candidates running in each constituency. Candidate profiles and their positions have been sourced from official party websites and summarized using advanced AI tools. This platform enhances voter engagement by providing concise, easily navigable information, including direct links to candidates’ political websites for further exploration.

  1. Policy Comparison:
    The Policy Comparison Questionnaire features responses from major political parties to a series of questions distributed by CAV. These questions cover essential policy areas such as economic growth, healthcare, environmental sustainability, and more. Where available, party responses have been included, and further details in the form of PDF’s from official party websites have been incorporated, providing voters with a comprehensive view of each party’s platform. The platform will be continuously updated as additional responses are received.
