Why Vocal Voters?

If you live in the United States, do you know your representatives name? How about your state representative or senator? How about your state Attorney General?

If you don't know, that's alright -- that's why you have VocalVoters.com!

The objective is to enable anyone to easily communicate with their representative(s) with as little friction as possible. To be frank, you don't even need to know who representats you, because we figure it out for you. Further, utilizing your billing information from your credit card, we can verify you live in representatives district. Implying your representative should weight your voice accordingly (i.e. more than Twitter).
