The initial stage of the project is to prepare data on the demographics of the community, voters, candidates, and elected commissioners. Before we can go any further, we need to understand who might use this data and how precisely they want to use it (use cases). These use cases will guide the development of any website or application we might undertake.
Potential user groups include:
Get-out-the-vote (GOTV) organizations like the League of Women Voters
Advocacy groups like NAACP
Journalists
Political scientists
The task here is to find specific people or organizations, reach out and find out what, if any interest they have in using the data and how we can support that use.
This task will spawn multiple specific user research tasks for specific users and uses.
