FaceTheFacts: Politik & Wahlen

FaceTheFacts is a powerful Chrome extension designed to bring political transparency directly to you. By scanning election posters, users instantly access comprehensive information about candidates, including their voting history, political stances, CVs, speeches, party donations, and outside activities. The extension covers candidates from the Bundestag and various regional parliaments, enabling voters to make informed decisions.

Beyond elections, FaceTheFacts offers a Bundestag dashboard that aggregates recent speeches, roll-call votes, and party donation data to keep users updated on parliamentary proceedings. Originating as an open-source, non-profit project by CODE University Berlin students, it prioritizes data privacy and transparency. This extension leverages publicly available governmental data sources, ensuring accuracy and reliability. Perfect for politically engaged users, it demystifies who influences politics and how.
