Project Description:
ParteieNavi is a Voting Advice Application (VAA) for German elections. It has been offered for the German national elections in 2013 and 2017 and for the federal elections in Saarland 2017. The Policy-Items are constructed by a Research Team at the Center for Data and Methods, in coordination with GESIS and PreferenceMatcher. The party positions are extracted from various sources, such as party manifestos and election manifestos, via multiple rounds of anonymous expert coding. The data comprises both the user data, as well as the data from the party coding process.
