The country's founding fathers once gathered under trees for public meetings and speeches. It will change the landscape of politics dramatically. It only makes sense that they also use it in politics. Some voters contact lawmakers through their Web sites, voicing their support or their anger on issues. They also check out candidates' positions listed at political Web sites and debate in chat rooms.
Many people look at the Internet as their primary source for getting information about candidates.
I expect it will have a similar impact on the democratic process. There's no question the changes will be profound. But the real impact will come when all of us will be able to vote online. Many hope the Web can boost the number of American voters, especially younger adults like Deel. Experts estimate 48 million American adults are online and 90 percent of them are registered voters.
