Oregon Ballot Drop Box Locator
Since the official locator for ballot drop sites in Oregon is pretty hard to find, not super user-friendly, and doesn't work in mobile browsers, I worked with Scott Duncombe at the Bus Project to develop a friendlier site that Oregon voters can use to find the nearest place to drop off their ballots. Locations are provided by Data.Oregon.gov. We're still looking at features to add over the next days/weeks, but the site is live.

Role: design, code, qa

Great idea. I remember this being something of a pain to figure out the first time when I lived in Oregon. Luckily, though, the assumption that there'd be a box next to the Eugene city hall was a good one, though probably not the closest!

This is great. Not something I personally need since I live less than two blocks from a library, but still, awesome.
