Connections: Bills - Voted With #5

For politicians' connections module, currently, only connections to those in the same party are shown.

Showing the connections between who voted on selected legislation (who voted together, who took a misogynist, racist, xenophobic, or anti-LGBTQ position, etc) would be a powerful way to reinforce that their words (quotes) don't operate in a vacuum - and those who are less gaffe-prone still vote in lockstep with those who are on important issues.

Site redesign in 39a5f62701adcc9b55e22ddb1339a717ac23b3a0 included a narrowing focus for the site.

While this would be a highly desired feature, the data collection involved would be enormous.

Closing for now.
