 * Would it be feasible to use this plugin as a searchable database of election 
   wards where people search for a ward and they get information of current candidates
   and results of previous elections with graph? If so, would the nomad plugin creator
   be willing to help set this us for a non-profit organisation trying to defeat
   a big capitalist project? We’d be more than happy to donate!

 * I’m not sure what you’re actually trying to do but my gut instinct says “yes,
   that should be possible” because it _sounds_ like you just want to create a few
   different lookup tables and then present them nicely on a website. That’s pretty
   trivial from a tech perspective and relies mostly on your having good, clean,
   organized data in machine-readable form (such as, of course, a well-structured
   Google Spreadsheet) from which to pull this data.
 * Given that there’s no technical challenge with the above and it’s just a matter
   of stringing a few different Sheets together, you should be able to do this on
   your own or give someone in your organization the time and space to learn how
   to do it. I’m both not interested in entering into a contractual exchange (“do
   this work for and we’ll air-quote ‘donate’ air-quote to your fund”) and _completely_
   uninterested in working with electoral politics.
 * Electoral voting is a rule-by-majority system and is inherently flawed from my
   ethical perspective. I cannot and do not support it. Nevertheless, good luck 
   with your project.
