Goa Elections!

A small group of activists took up the task of scrutinizing each of the candidates in every one of the constituencies of Goa and used the web medium to broadcast (apart from printed work in three languages) to ensure that at least the public are aware of the corruption. The web site contains records, the submission of the candidate to the election authorities, etc.

Whether the Goa election was influenced by their work I don't know, (and how long will the wafer thin majority last with almost every MLA having the possibility of becoming a minister) but, it certainly holds a lesson for others in other parts of the country, lookup www.goavotes.info
