The American Family Association and Heritage Alliance have teamed up to create an online and mobile voter guide for the 2012 elections. The guide covers federal races in all 50 states as well as contests in a dozen battleground states

"With critical issues like religious liberty, federal judges, sanctity of human life, marriage, free enterprise, national defense and Judeo-Christian values, we feel the guide is an invaluable resource to all who are planning to cast a vote this November," said AFA Executive Vice President Buddy Smith. "The purpose of the AFA Voter Guide is neither to endorse nor oppose candidates. Rather, a conservative panel has awarded grades determined by how information gathered from and/or contributed by the candidate offers confidence that the candidate will vote conservatively if elected to public office."

The AFA Voter Guide has been designed to target legislative voting records if the candidate has recently held office, and it follows financial contributions by the candidate to other legislators with voting records. In addition, it records vote ratings for legislators to whom donors to the candidate have also contributed. Furthermore, the guide records vote ratings of federal legislators from conservative and liberal organizations, candidate surveys on issues, role of government, background, beliefs, and statements on candidates' websites.

The AFA Voter Guide is available online and for the iPhone, iPad and Android by searching for "AFA Action" in your app store or texting the word APPLE or ANDROID to 70994.
