Today thelobbyist soft launched Conservative Congress. This website will be replacing campaignlobbyist.net. Our resources were really spread too thin to cover campaigns and elections via blogging. So we decided to do something more difficult…. review every candidate in every district in America based on a Issues Statement platform that 5 members of the project from varying conservative ideologies agreed defined “true” conservatism.
So today we soft launched. The site is up and working in full, but we are still gathering data from various candidates who have not returned their questionnaire. Right now we have information on candidates for Primary Elections taking place over the next 90 days (i.e. through May). We will always strive to maintain this time line of always being 90 days ahead of primaries giving voters a chance to take a hard look at their candidates.
What we’re doing? In a nut shell we’ve researched a candidate based on our platform. If he aligns himself or herself fully with our Issues Statement we recommend them to the voter. Bare in mind if multiple candidates in a district meet all our criteria, we recommend both candidates as individuals that are truly conservative. We leave it up to the voter to determine their opinion on character, local standing, etc.
For full transparency we have included all our research in our Research page. There you can select your state and see where a candidate in your district may have fallen short, or on what issue they have not answered our questions.
You can follow updates for Conservative Congress @ConsrvCongress. We also have a Facebook fan page and our home page is constantly streaming the most recent campaigns and election coverage from the top conservative websites and blogs on the net.
Finally, and dearest to my heart is our Conservative Congress Forums. They are simple and elegant in form and provide an easy way for you to get active in debate and discourse on the campaigns and primary elections in your area!
We hope you enjoy the new site!
Yours in Conservatism,
Nick R. Brown
