Dating App Uses Your Politics to Find Your Love
The candiDate Android app is a new dating service that helps members connect with real, local singles based on shared political values and beliefs.
The candiDate dating service connects conscientious singles looking to meet someone who shares their politics. The app uses your opinions on today’s hot button issues (such as abortion, guns, gay marriage, the environment, foreign policy, the economy and your views on different politicians) to connect you to like-minded matches.
Republicans, Democrats, Tea Partiers, Independents, Greens, conservatives and liberals – all can use the nonpartisan app.

The native Android app was developed by HelpsGood, a digital agency, and is powered by Rock the Vote’s voter registration system with political data sourced from Vote Smart, a non-partisan, citizen-driven organization devoted to voter education.
“candiDate is like Tinder or OkCupid for people who are truly passionate about what matters most,” said HelpsGood CEO, Michael Bellavia.
Addressing some of the controversy around dating exclusively within political lines, Bellavia added, “You can always change some of your answers to reach across the political aisle. We’re hopeful candiDate can connect people who care deeply about core issues and bring more people together in 2015.”
The mobile app is available for free exclusively in Google Play.
