First of all congratulations with the great visualisation of the Federal Parliament Data.

I was wondering if there are any plans to visualise the votes of the members because currently there is no easy way to see how the members voted on topics without diving into the documents. I think this could come in very handy during the elections. It was at least something that I missed during the elections of 2019.

The feature requests I had in mind were

  • As a user I want to see the votes of a member ordered by most recent
  • As a user I want to see the how members voted on a topic

This is a really good feature request, it’s something that was on our mind as well over the last few days.

We’ll be looking into good ways to visualize this over the next few days and keep this issue up to date.

Thank you for all the work you put in this very relevant project.

I think making politicians accountable for their choices is a vital aspect of democracy.

Therefore, it would be great if people can backtrace voting behaviour on legislative topics.

For example, I read this and want to know who (parlimentarian) voted how (pos/neg/neutral):
"Due to an extension of the law, which took effect on July 27, ANPR cameras can now also detect tax sinners."
