Multiple Languages

Open kemitchell opened this issue 10 years ago • 3 comments

Ballots in multilingual communities often require, by law, that ballots and other official election-related information be made available in multiple languages. Consider supporting multilingual representations via the Accept-Language header, or otherwise.

@kemitchell FYI, the Voting Information Project recently added internationalization / multi-language support to their upcoming version 5.0 spec. I'm also in the process of making multi-lingual data available at the SFBED project (at least for the election data in San Francisco that is "fixed" like office and government body names). I'm aiming for the seven languages officially supported by the SF Department of Elections.

Unsure how to do this with Jekyll and Github Pages.
