Call For Testers - Elections Application

[roopesh majeti]

I tried just now and following are my thoughts :

1) The first page is good. But a clear heading like "Vote for President "
will be good rather than "Real President Nominee".

2) When the user wants to know the info about a Nominee, once he clicks the
link "info", it is better to have a pop-up, rather than redirecting the
whole page.

3) A non-uniformity is there in the Nominee's information. It is true that
the control directs us to the user homepage. But for this President Nominee
stuff, it is good to develope a generic page having information populated
regarding that Nominee.

4) Why the site is re-directed to cnn.com/politics when the user request for
more information on the President Ranking page ?

5) After confirming the Vote, the user is redirected to the initial home
page. But the following appears at the bottom.
                "Build time: 0.115s, Page size: 2.23KB"
It is truely required to display to the end-user ?

6) When tried to view the results, by clicking "Community", iam facing this
problem.
500 Internal error


Overall, it looks fine.
