This article presents information on the utility of Internet for U.S. voters. A new entry for the 1998 elections is the web site Women’s Voting Guide, a project of the Women Leaders Online Fund. This is an interactive site that allows voters to compare their positions on nearly 300 votes with those of Senate and House incumbents and challengers. The issues were chosen from votes cast in Congress since 1995. The end result is a personalized voting guide that gives a percentage score to each candidate relative to the voter’s priorities. The site was designed for busy women who want to review issues that concern them without spending hours online.
