Need proof of the advantages of transparency?

The Kentucky Club for Growth recently posted a piece about the voting record of Kentucky Senator Damon Thayer. The blog contained stats about his voting history on tax issues including raw vote numbers and a percentage representation of how his votes aligned with the missions of the Kentucky Club for Growth.

Pretty neat that an organization has the ability to do that and chances are you don't have the time to do it yourself. What makes this access and display of information possible? Transparency. In this case, specifically the transparent voting records of state legislators.

Transparency is being put to good use in Kentucky - lets have some more!
