November 05, 2018 Office of Admissions Are you preparing to vote on Election Day tomorrow and need a study guide for your ballot measures? Head over to BallotReady, an online tool that allows voters to research candidates and ballot measures based on nonpartisan information. The startup was founded by Harris alum Aviva Rosman (AB'10, MPP'16) and University of Chicago alum Alex Niemczewski, and recently won the Social Innovator Award of the 2018 Chicago Innovation Awards. On the role of Harris Public Policy in preparing her for the success of BallotReady, Rosman comments: It was at Harris that I decided to pursue this idea, and I had the resources and support to do so. I also believe that Harris’ huge focus on data has helped me focus on how best to measure our effectiveness and generate insights from the data we’re seeing. And then we can understand what we can to prove out the hypothesis that more information will lead to optimal outcomes for communities in terms of who represents voters.
