PollWatchUSA is a non-partisan way to crowd source reporting problems at the polls on election day. When a voter uses PollWatchUSA to report a problem, it's mapped on our website and reported to the relevant election administration. The data we collect is open and accessible through an API.

Volkan is a software craftsman, a hackathon junkie, and enjoys nothing more than working with small and extraordinary teams who are making a dent in the universe. He's our ace developer and the reason that pollwatch is fast, reliable and exists as more than some scribbles on paper.

He scored his open gov chops as one of the first class of Code for America fellows and loves working with people who love what they do.

Alexis is an amazing independent communications and media consultant specializing in New York politics. You should follow her on <a href='https://twitter.com/agrenell'>Twitter</a>. She's making sure that the right people know what pollwatch is, and also making sure the pollwatch team doesn't put our collective foot in our mouth when we talk to those right people (kind of a miracle worker, actually). She also writes about politics for publications such as the New York Post, City & State, and appears on NY1.
