@AmyKort @PaulClark2
Below please find the first draft for the homepage. Feel free to share with stakeholders as you see fit. Happy to explain my thinking further if/when that is necessary.

This makes the Presidential map a prominent fixture on the homepage and also allows us to showcase other valuable content on the homepage, including the H4CC and legal resources. It should be big and bright enough to generate interest from new visitors as well as those who have been to our site before and know what they're looking for.

Thank you @JonellaCulmer !

Slight change to the homepage mockup. Switched out the icon for the prez map, from a search icon to an ordered chart icon.

Thank you @JonellaCulmer, I think this looks good. One question, will the different buckets on the homepage be flexible to linking to other important features on the site as well? What will be the content governance for the decision to change these links @AmyKort?

[dorothyyeager]

Thanks @JonellaCulmer! I like the direction you have gone in and as a sidenote, I really appreciate the heightened visibility of H4CC, which a lot of callers to the Information Division seem to not be able to find.

For the data map, isn't it just more than contributions raised? If yes, I'd match the language on https://www.fec.gov/data/browse-data/?tab=candidates and change description to read "Search presidential candidate data including money raised, money spent, cash-on-hand and debt."

I noticed for H4CC, you used the language from the intro sentence on the landing page, but not for legal resources. So I would recommend doing the same for legal resources and changing that description to "Explore relevant statutes, regulations, Commission actions and court cases" to match the sentence in the heading on https://www.fec.gov/legal-resources/.

**copy-editing myself - cash-on-hand uses hyphens in the glossary so trying for consistency with that.

@JonellaCulmer I would agree with Dorothy's comment about the map being more than contributions raised. I would go with her descriptions.

@AmyKort @PaulClark2 Any objections to what @dorothyyeager suggested in her comment above?

[AmyKort]

I agree with @dorothyyeager .

[PaulClark2]

I agree with @AmyKort and @dorothyyeager
