Federal Election Commission buys Mapping Software for Public Finance Maps
The Federal Election Commission now offers an interactive map that shows how much each candidate has raised right down to the zip code. Now, that’s fine, here’s the interesting part: The FEC did so after seeing a similar app from the New York Times which cost $800,000. I believe it’s this one. The commission then went out and bought the same software (not sure what, but it uses Flash) with fewer bells and whistles for its own site. Cost to taxpayers: $12,000.
