You Wish Group launch “Who gets my vote?”

Sunday, April 11th, 2010

Find out who you really want to run the country 

Who Gets My Vote? is a free new service giving UK voters an easy means of making an informed voting choice in the General Election. It was conceived by You Wish Group, a digital services group pioneering an entirely new way for businesses, media and political parties to interact with their audiences.  Who Gets My Vote? has no political leanings or commercial bias.  Its objective is simply to help people communicate and exercise their personal choices more effectively.

Who gets my vote worked with ITV News and ITV.com to develop the tool – available at www.ITV.com/news/election2010 . Who Gets My Vote? is a more interesting way of deciding which party most closely meets the voting public’s needs. Fed up or bored with politics?  Try going on to www.whogetsmyvote.com

You’ll find it more interesting than listening to a party political broadcast or reading a pamphlet. You may be surprised by which party is most likely to give you what you want. It could be Labour, Conservative, Liberal Democrat, SNP, Plaid Cymru, BNP, UKIP and Greens or some mix of all of them.

www.whogetsmyvote.com has a simple 4 step process to find out which party you seem to be in step with:

  1. Simply click on the 7 policy areas that most matter to you
  2. Select a specific policy statement for each one, without knowing which party is promoting it
  3. Prioritise your chosen 7 policy areas
  4. Submit your ballot paper and see which party you want!

Users will also be able to see the make-up of their perfect Cabinet, made up of whichever spokesmen and women from the parties that match their interest areas. By registering, users can save results, see how they change after each election, see how their neighbourhood is voting, share results on Facebook or Twitter and receive email alerts from ITV.

The idea was conceived by You Wish Group as a way of enabling genuine user intentions and concerns to demonstrate what UK voters really want, rather than being distorted by tribal voting patterns or media soundbites. You Wish partnered with the creative digital agency Dropp to help bring the initial concept to life and develop it in an ongoing business.

Chris Robson, CEO of You Wish Group said;

“You Wish was set up to help people communicate their personal choices more effectively. An obvious example of this is in the way people vote.  Never has there been a more important time to let people really state what they want than an election where real party policy differences are so clearly lacking. Who Gets My Vote is voter sourcing on speed, so we expect some surprising results!”

Jason Mills, Programme Editor at ITV News, commented:

“Who Gets My Vote is a brilliant concept.   ”As the election draws closer, and the polls point towards a hung parliament, the policies of all parties become even more relevant. Individual voters will love the idea of their ideal Cabinet being selected on the back of what they really want.  Not only will it provide a new source of entertainment, its results will also be of enormous interest to the media and to the political parties themselves.”

Open source voting

Sunday, February 28th, 2010

Are we in for a treat this General Election?

Will we see the first “open source” Election where “Votersourcing” quickly allows voters to understand and indicate which party policies are most interesting and which parties are therefore the most appropriate for them. This in turn provides a real time view of which party is coming out ahead. We think so.

Crowdsourcing leverages the power of the web to get large amounts of comments quickly. There has been some talk of political crowdsourcing but that is only the first step. We believe that the opportunity is to bring about “votersourcing” and that is what we are doing in 2010 for the Election.

More news soon.
