People are often unaware if election-related promises are fulfilled. Politicians aren't reviewed like products or services; sometimes a Zomato restaurant feels more accountable than a minister. People lose interest and question whether their votes actually have an impact when there is a lack of transparency.
There aren’t any platforms where citizens can track their leaders, rate their promises or verify their promised delivery. Information is always scattered, biased, or buried, which makes governance unclear making it lack transparency.
Electra is a platform that allows citizens to view, rate, and track promises in real-time, making accountability into a reliable system. It is similar to Yelp or IMDb, but for politics.
This platform includes the following features:
- Leader Profiles: Each politician will have an active profile that displays their accomplishments, pledges, and public opinion.
- Issue-Based Reviews: allows the users to rank the quality of services in important areas such as infrastructure, safety, healthcare, and employment.
- Fact-Check Layer: AI recognizes promises from misleading information by comparing statements to official data.
- Election Mode: Voters are provided with clear insight into who truly succeeds by viewing live ratings, performance scores, and past performances prior to casting their ballots.
- Performance Feedback: Leaders receive honest, open feedbacks; underperforming leaders experience a decline in their scores, which may affect their eligibility in the future.
This platform benefits:
- Voters: All voters can hold politicians accountable and make educated decisions by gaining clear, up-to-date facts about their leaders performances. Because citizens can monitor the real implementation of those promises and every vote gains significance.
- Honest leaders: They Gain reputation as well as global trust by keeping their word. Since everyone can see their results and transparency, more leaders tend to get inspired to act responsibly.
- Civil society: Benefits from more transparency and citizen involvement, which lowers corruption and creates an environment where government is transparent, accountable as well as trackable.
As a student, I feel that leaders take pleasure of their fame and authority without taking responsibility. Why can't the public review politicians like they can review movies and apps? Electra gives people a voice beyond election day.
AI + crowdsourced reviews + blockchain ensures ratings can’t be faked or manipulated.
Comments
I was thrilled to be involved in democracy for the first time when I cast my ballot. However, I was startled to discover that my name had already been "used" when I arrived at the polling station. I was not allowed to vote that day because someone had cast a fake ballot using my name. It was annoying and caused me to wonder if my voice really did matter. Because it gives people like me a way to have their voices heard outside of the voting booth and makes sure that accountability isn't compromised like my first vote did, that's why I think Electra is so valuable.
However, I'm curious about how Electra will stop negative reviews from influencing ratings.
Score manipulation by some groups could become propaganda.
Just as crucial as the features themselves will be a strong moderation system.
