As promised, we now have:
- Fully zoomable mosaic images of the three party leaders. Use as you wish. Thanks to Donovan Hide
- Dynamic map of leaflets by constituency for zooming and exploring the granularity of the election. Thanks to Martin Green
- The words that went with my presentation
Read about it on the Guardian here.
The slides for the presentation are embedded below. But the three key points out of it are:
Accurate local polls are essential for voters who are required to vote tactically in a first-past-the-post system
Information about candidates, including their CVs, should be available to voters on a single website for comparison
Every election leaflet should be uploaded to the Electoral Commission website for permanent archive where they can be verified by voters
