Zusammenfassung
  • The 2024 Parliamentary Elections in Georgia were fiercely contested, with opposition figures, civil society groups, and ordinary citizens characterizing them as “existential.” Held amid a protracted political crisis triggered by the ruling Georgian Dream government’s controversial legislation—measures widely viewed as curbing civil rights and tightening an authoritarian grip—the elections took place in a polarized environment. In response, Geocompass, a Voting Advice Application (VAA) built on the widely tested Kieskompas methodology, sought to fill this gap. The tool posed 32 policy questions across six thematic areas, placing users on left-right and conservative-liberal scales and helping them navigate Georgia’s fragmented ideological landscape. With more than 30,000 voters using Geocompass, the resulting data offer a valuable snapshot of where both voters and parties stand in an otherwise polarized political arena.
