Especially in midterms, every vote counts. The votes of about 1 American in 10 will determine who controls Congress. Project Vote looks to me like the main game in town.

Solar Roadways Wins $50,000 From GE

Posted by Phoenix Woman on October 14, 2010

And they have a shot at winning a lot more:

The Ecomagination Challenge, however, isn’t an all-out victory for the Brusaws yet. GE has yet to announce the winners of their innovation awards in five categories, each carrying an award of $100,000. And the real money from the challenge rests on GE’s selection of ideas to officially sponsor, an announcement that could place up to $200 million in Solar Roadways’ coffers. With that kind of money, the Brusaws could begin to implement their idea on a small scale.

“That’s the announcement that we’re really waiting for,” Brusaw said. “But still, the $50,000 is a great start.”

It certainly would be. I’ve been following the Solar Roadways people for a while now, and it’s getting closer to reality with each passing day.
