Get to know Project Vote Smart and become involved right here on campus. Project Vote Smart is an organization designed to bypass the political mud-slinging and verbal bashing that candidates do to better themselves in the political race.
Citizens can call the volunteers and ask questions about the candidates, and issues.
Volunteers at the project are equipped with information from the political parties and past elections to provide callers with the most accurate information about politicians. Through Project Vote Smart individuals can receive factual nonpartisan information about the candidates. This fall, students at Northeastern can actually become a part of the campaign madness by serving as interns with Vote Smart. After completing the class, students can sign up to become interns, and answer callers' questions. Students are required to work at least 12 hours a week and will earn four credit hours.
