    Would it be feasible to use this plugin as a searchable database of election wards where people search for a ward and they get information of current candidates and results of previous elections with graph? If so, would the nomad plugin creator be willing to help set this us for a non-profit organisation trying to defeat a big capitalist project? We’d be more than happy to donate!

    I’m not sure what you’re actually trying to do but my gut instinct says “yes, that should be possible” because it sounds like you just want to create a few different lookup tables and then present them nicely on a website. That’s pretty trivial from a tech perspective and relies mostly on your having good, clean, organized data in machine-readable form (such as, of course, a well-structured Google Spreadsheet) from which to pull this data.

    Given that there’s no technical challenge with the above and it’s just a matter of stringing a few different Sheets together, you should be able to do this on your own or give someone in your organization the time and space to learn how to do it. I’m both not interested in entering into a contractual exchange (“do this work for and we’ll air-quote ‘donate’ air-quote to your fund”) and completely uninterested in working with electoral politics.

    Electoral voting is a rule-by-majority system and is inherently flawed from my ethical perspective. I cannot and do not support it. Nevertheless, good luck with your project.
