If, based on their zip code, voters could access wiki based information about upcoming local and federal races and referenda items relevant to their districts, working families would have a powerful and democratic information resource at their disposal in the ballot box.
I've discussed this idea with Decius in depth. A Wiki voter guide would be possible, but extremely hard. In terms of spam and attacks, this would pose the greatest challenge to the Wiki format either of us can think of. No content would be as charged as a voter guide.
Even seeding the Wiki would be tough. Just finding out who is running in what district and what zip codes cover a district is non-trivial.

Seriously though, it's an excellent idea. Seeding wouldn't be that bad , at least in heavily wired areas. You could simply implore users to fill in information on their own constituencies and branch out only in areas that have a lack of users. There's no easy way around the spam thing without making it somewhat of a pain to moderate though.
