Just a heads up, there 68 emails in my inbox giving me temporary passwords to log in. Luckily I was not logged out. I have changed my e-mail address connected to this website, one that Pokemon doesn't know, in order to assess whether it's a site glitch or he's trying to get into my account.

Update since e-mail change. No emails sent. So it seems our dear friend was trying to screw with us. I recommend everyone who has this issue change your OC email and password to something he doesn't know and it should fix this issue.

Hi RP.
Cyber Politics is trying to login and is having problems. He is certain he is typing in the correct credentials he last used. Is the password reset back on? Should i tell him to try that?
Thanks. Brent.

Hey Randy, just wanted to let you know I was logged out of my account. Glad the password reset was still installed. Just wanted to give you a heads up in case others have the same issue.

Hi Randy, my name is Charles Yeganian, and I run www.leap-forward.org. Unlikely that you're familiar, but I use your site quite a bit, and thank you for doing this work.
There are quite a few areas in which our work overlaps, and I'd love to be able to help add some of the data I find to OurCampaigns. I know the general rule is that to get access to include my endorsements / news / quotes to OC, it requires some participation in the forums and the like. Since I work a great deal with candidates, I try not to pontificate TOO much online as to keep my opinions and theirs separate, so I'm just writing to see what would constitute engagements that would allow me to add to your database without putting myself TOO much out there.
Thanks again. Hope I can help.
Charles

Hi User#10938 - we accept a wide variety of things as "substantive discussion". It can pontification or punditry or just data or observations we may be missing. We're just looking for the ability to contribute substantially to the purpose of the site and not use it as a destructive playground or propaganda site - there are plenty of those out there.

The cart is mostly for moving things around right now, which is a higher level of access. There are some planned functions for regular users that will happen in the future.

Quick style question for you. Do you prefer news about a candidate be put on that candidate's page or on the race page or both. I assume it's dependent on whether it's news specifically about the individual or a "state of the race" piece, but thought I'd ask.

Understood. Along those lines, one of my main functions at LF is a legislative scorecard, grading sitting lawmakers based on voting records. Is there an input for that on candidate pages, or is it strictly interest group endorsements you're capturing?

Correct me if I'm wrong @RP, but I've assumed it's just endorsements from candidates, officeholders, political organizations, etc. I've seen scorecards put in the Bio of a given candidate.

A not very well known feature of the site is to be able to add additional meta information to Candidates.
When editing a Candidate profile, there is an almost hidden link next to the Race label (black on navy blue) that says [+meta]. Clicking on that will add a line with a dropdown with the other meta info that has been added as well as a *New option to add your own.

I see that. What I generate for each lawmaker is a page like this
https://www.billtrack50.com/public/scorecard/legislator/jbctDlEfpUimtWaB1g5s8w/2377
so it could even just be a link under News, perhaps. At any rate, I publish them yearly, so none of them will be official until the end of the calendar year, so there's time to consider.
