Eligibilty Requirements I Judging Process I Past Winners I FAQ I Shortlist of Nominees

To be eligible, you must have used the Internet to try to influence the political process (i.e. for an electoral campaign, political party, official ballot, issue campaign, etc.) between January 1, 2007 and December 31, 2007. Nominees must have campaigned or conducted advocacy online.

Nominations may be made for any participant or group of participants in an online campaign (i.e., Webmasters, consultants, managers, staff, spokespersons, writers, producers, and designers). One representative for each nominated Web site should be designated on the nomination form as the person to be invited to claim the award. In the event several individuals and/or firms are responsible for the success of the campaign, the entire group will be awarded the Golden Dot Award.

It is not necessary to excel in all the criteria for an award in order to win. Entrants should describe their achievements in terms of as many criteria as they think apply.

Note: Multiple submissions do not increase a site’s likelihood of winning.
