title: Open source political campaign management software?
body: <p>Does anyone know of any active open source projects working on political campaign management software?</p>
  
  <p>I looked on sourceforge but didn't see anything relevant from the queries "political", "politics", "donations", "campaign", or in the categories "accounting", "politics" or "voting".</p>
  
  <p>I'm involved with a political campaign that is currently paying out the nose for some horribly designed SaaS (whose Name i Guess i should Protect, ahem) to basically just keep track of donations people have made now, donations people have made in the past, donations people have pledged to make, contact information, the way they will likely vote, etc.</p>
  
  <p>It's a bit much to manage in spreadsheets, but doesn't seem like it's something complex enough that political campaigns should have to pay for (especially low-budget local ones). </p>
  
  <p>I'd love to help out if such a project exists, or start/revive one if it doesn't.</p>
  
  <p>Any hints, places to look, etc are much appreciated. </p>
