Frequently Asked Questions

Welcome to the Political Cortex “Frequently Asked Questions” Page. Here we’ve attempted to present a coherent and complete explanation of the questions most likely to pop up. Even so, we couldn’t anticipate every one, so if you have any further questions, please feel free to drop us a line at admin@politicalcortex.com.

There are two ways to navigate the FAQ in order to get the information you need in the minimum amount of time:

• Targeting Specific Data: The various topics are broken down below with hypothetical questions linked to their respective answers.


• Browsing: The FAQ is also broken down into pages so that you can browse all the information and really get a solid feel for what Political Cortex has to offer. We recommend that all Registered Users read the entire FAQ at some point.

Being Realistic, we’ve also provided a “Primer” that all Registered Users will see in their “USER MENU” in the right-hand column. This will help you get moving ASAP. Even then, the complete FAQ read is highly recommended.
