Digital Politics: Accountability and Transparency
FiNC’s efforts to reform our political process revolve around the three main components of Digital Politics. The first component is Accountability and Transparency. Today’s politicians throw everything they can at the wall to see what sticks. We’re here to stop reckless, unchecked behavior and show voters the truth about officials representing them.
Universal Facts
Narratives on social media today are filled with alternative facts, misinformation, and partisan biases. Emotion and personal beliefs, not data-based facts, fuel these efforts to mislead the public. FiNC is eliminating the bias from these narratives and replacing them with indisputable Universal Facts.

Objective, data-backed facts are the foundation for making decisions that benefit the majority. We deserve to make our own informed decisions based on cold, hard facts, instead of automatically agreeing with partisan narratives.
Politicians’ Voting Records
Voters hear a lot of promises during the campaign cycle. Candidates talk big in their TV ads, rallies, and social media accounts. Campaigns tell you what you want to hear to get your vote. How many of those promises come to fruition?
Incumbent candidates have a real-life record of how they voted during their past terms. Digital Politics creates an accessible means to view how campaign promises compare to legislative action.
We can fire our elected officials during the next election if they’re not performing their jobs. The Digital Democracy platform displays information about politicians and empowers voters to hold them responsible for their actions and inaction.
Funding Sources
Politicians receive funding from a wide range of sources. Sure, many donations are small dollar amounts from supporters, but a great deal of campaign financing comes from corporations and unknown sources.
Digital Politics paves the way for the public to learn how each candidate is funded and who’s pulling the strings. Voters have the right to know if big industries are backing candidates. Too often we see massive donations to campaigns from threatened industries whose commitment is to their stakeholders and generating profits.
FiNC is working hard to eliminate unjust influence and end the quid pro quo methods of law-making. Digital Politics pulls back the curtain, showing voters where candidates\’ funding is sourced. Citizens can compare these funding sources with past voting records for incumbent candidates to draw their conclusions.
Policy Positions
Campaigns are about who can raise the most money and put on the biggest show. These tactics only breed corruption and remove focus from doing the people’s work. The DD platform displays candidate data in an equal and unbiased format.
It doesn’t matter if candidates are farmers from the Midwest, successful businesspeople from the coasts, or somewhere in between. Digital Democracy gives every candidate an equal chance to make their case, earning your vote.

Politician profiles display their stances on the issues. Users can view competing candidates and decide who gets their vote. Combine this with data-backed policy information from the FiNC Research Hub and citizens can use this objective information to think for themselves.
An informed voter base is the first step to making change. Let’s end the dog and pony shows and return to the issues that matter.
Accountability and Transparency are the first steps to moving forward. Head over to the next blog in our Digital Politics series and learn all about A New Way of Framing Politics!
