MandateMeter is built for the people, not for parties. This is our space to hold leaders accountable, share our voices, and track promises against delivery. Rome wasn’t built in a day, and neither will this platform — but every vote, every comment, and every story here is proof that citizens can shape the future. Register, vote, and let’s make sure our councillors and government listen to us.
