Comprehensive Congressional vote record database

This is a very cool project by the Washington Post and the guy who created chicagocrime.org, Adrian Holovaty. Basically, the entire congressional voting record since 1991 is used to track the voting habits of congress, and has it broken down by various demographics such as sex, region, etc. You can even track votes by astrological sign, which is the only real way to understand congress.

Any of the senators or house members can be subscribed to via RSS. For example, you can subscribe to Tom Lantos and see every time he votes right in your RSS reader.

Check it out, and track down your own congresspeople: http://projects.washingtonpost.com/congress/
