I think the biggest issue is that the information is only available to the net connected. This effectively removes choice as those who want to vote but lack knowledge of the individuals and their policies will go by political affiliation.

As an example. my candidate for the position in Lancashire happens to be the UKIP candidate. Whilst I would normally vote blue, the idiot responsible for 20mph on our main roads and the proliferation of speed cameras etc is the blue candidate. No way would he get my vote. and the red one just wants to talk about diversity
