The linked article doesn't give a lot of detail on the specific complaints or what you would need to do to make those sites accessible. Do you have any information on that?

Democracy has some intentional opacity though. Consider the impact of making your personal voting choice public. AFAIK, nobody has ever tried that because of the dangers of vote buying and coercion. Essentially, gaming the system. (I don&#

Perhaps because of the web's deployment model? Quickly getting from "interested in" to "running the game" might be a game-changer. (apologies for the unintentional pun)
