To clarify my point, especially in politics there is a good chance that the post with the highest score might not even have support from a majority of people who voted (it could be 45+/15=/40-, so 45% support), might not even be voted on by a majority of the people who see it (10% of views vote, so that's 4.5% of viewers support), might not even be viewed by a majority of users (10% of all users view the post, so 0.45% of all users support), and a majority of electors are not users of your app (generously 10% market penetration is now 0.045% of electors support). I'm not sure decision makers would take these numbers seriously until you get huge market share and huge engagement/participation. I would suggest starting in much smaller markets where you can increase those percentages dramatically, and then expand from there.
