Two men in a bus are making their way across the country with the goal of informing voters. Project Vote Smart made a stop in Tallahassee today and will travel the state over the weekend. The tour is funded by a nonpartisan, nonprofit group. The group shows people how to find nonbiased information on local, state and candidates for US offices. Vote Smart Spokesman Ben Kastan said it’s important for people to know where the candidates aspiring to represent them stand.
“The reason we cover all these races besides just the president, is because in all these race from local municipal all the way up to president, do affect peoples lives in very direct ways. So that’s one of the main reasons it’s important to vote, because they do have a very direct measurable impact on people’s daily lives,” said Kastan.
The bus has traveled more than 30,000 miles and visited 44 states.
