On Wednesday launched Tinder a new feature in the US that will allow users to match with the presidential candidates instead of each other. This feature is called “Swipe the Vote” and is based on users swipe left or right 10 political positions. Based on these scans will you then find out which candidate it is closest to the candidates who have not yet dropped out.
Users are forced among others to consider same-sex marriage, legalization of marijuana and the death penalty. Before the sweep, they can get more information in the app, just as they can when they usually sweeps through possible dates. With a click, users can, for example, access to short summaries of what the two sides’ arguments tend to be around the issue.
