About CongressDB

This is version 0.1 of CongressDB, an experimental political analysis site. CongressDB is in early beta. You should double-check any results here with another source before using it for anything important (or even for anything trivial).

CongressDB was created to serve the needs of the Fighting 29th, a weblog covering New York's 29th Congressional District.
