Rate Your Politician

The private sector rates many services like food delivery, hotels and customer service calls. However, we do not rate our elected officials. With Poliforum's reviewing system, citizens participate in democracy by voicing their thoughts and feelings through constructive feedback that is a valuable indicator for these officials. These reviews serve as a feedback loop both for citizens and for the government.

​Please submit your review based on your personal experience and perspective.

  1. Provide a rating based on their general performance.

  2. In 2-3 sentence, describe your general impression of their capabilities in this role.

  3. Add your thoughts, constructive feedback or a note on their work.

  4. Upload an image or video that supports your review.​

Review the following prompts based on these criteria:

  • Trustworthiness

  • Family Values

  • Accessibility to constituents

  • Representation of local issues

  • Effectiveness in parliament
