bcohen123··on Show HN: I made a “voting assistant” app. Do you have any feedback?
Honestly, I don't think it's that useful to eliminate candidates after one disagreeing stance. While ideal, there will never be a candidate with who I fully agree with. It would be much more useful to ask multiple questions and report back with which candidate's views align most closely with mine.

I grabbed the data from here awile back: https://snap.stanford.edu/data/web-BeerAdvocate.html Unfortunately it appears to no longer be available for download. This (https://snap.stanford.edu/data/web-RateBeer.html) seems to be a similar dataset which may be available for use.

Good! Looks good and was a MUCH needed update. Their last version was a tad....unusable at times and lacked some much needed features. Glad to see an upgrade.
