Thank you all for participating in our experiment.

Seriously, thank you. Our goal is to create more accountability in government and our idea is an action based metric that puts "keen citizens" back in control of elections. This project went from idea to launch in less than six weeks and while it was nowhere close to our complete vision, we are immensely proud of it and we believe it was an overall success. We are fired up about Keen Citizen's future and are actively planning the next steps for Chattanooga and for elections across the country. If you think your city needs Keen Citizen or if you are interested in joining the team, please send us an email, we would love to hear from you.

Thank you again,
The Keen Citizen Team

How it works
As you track candidates in your district through the "Town Square" interface we encourage you to click and "Give 'em a Hand" when their answers, positions, and actions warrant support. When you "Give 'em a Hand" it counts towards their "Ovation Score", which we use to rank candidates. Think of it as our own "meritocracy".

And don't be bashful, go ahead and let your voice be heard by leaving a good word in the comments below each story. Chattanooga needs Keen Citizens like you.
