Hello Hunters! I am Chandan, developer at Nimbella and I am super excited to share what I have built. It took me just a week to put all this together on the Nimbella platform and you can use these powerful APIs, build your own app and win $2020. Imagine ending 2020 with a win! Here is the link to my app, just clone it and start working. Don’t forget to register your entry here. I have created this project to aggregate election-related services into a convenient set of APIs and an example Cloud application. You can use these powerful APIs to quickly build and run your own Election cloud applications, or customize our example application with your own inspirations. Then, deploy your project to the Nimbella cloud with one command so you can easily share it with your friends, family, and everyone you know. Your ideas can increase awareness of the upcoming 2020 Election and inspire others to vote. From Roald Dahl's unforgettable words "Somewhere inside of all of us is the power to change the world." to Thomas Jefferson's truisms "We do not have government by the majority. We have a government by the majority who participate." , to Nanette L. Avery who puts it as "Talk is cheap, voting is free; take it to the polls."; there's something to inspire every activist and voter out there.

@yulia_aslamova1, thanks for your interest in this interesting contest. Of course, you can! There's is no such country-based restriction. Only in certain embargoed countries, we might not be able to make payments. The submission date is Oct. 25, 2020 (11:59 PM PDT) and the winners will be declared on Oct. 30, 2020. Using the APIs you can look up the representatives, polling places, early vote location, candidate data, election news, and other election official information. You can visit the API info page to explore more https://electiondemo-apigcp.nimb...
