shawn,
Not sure if you have seen this http://www.elderweb.com/demo
but some of the work KarenS has done, as well as some of the stuff she is demoing on this site might have implications for the legislative score card system you are working on. Particularly views_calc http://drupal.org/node/67344
I'm thinking that with:
cck
views
contemp
views_cal
civinode
civicrm
you could create a recipe for legislative score card keeping that woudl avoid having to build and maintain a custom module for it. (can you email me directly too? i don't have your email address, i don't think)

Outstanding!
That is far too cool. Looks very similar to what we have custom produced. Nice to see a generic solution in progress. I will have to give that a try...
Seems like most modules only support 4.7 at this time. So I'll have to roll out a test site to give it a try since I am still in production on 4.6. Spent last night working on the CVS version of 4.8/5.0, but none of these modules are recognized.
Do you have a link to the Contemp module? I've never been able to find it on the Drupal site.
I also found a great resource for looking up Legislative representatives by ZIP code: http://www.echoditto.com/zip2rep
Thanks for the info, I'll pass this along to Michael as well,
Best regards
