" summary

A crowdsourced map implements an hierarchical object-graph database modelling US Green Party politicians, organizations and events and runs on a persistent Python launcher database with Python classes exposed as editable objects. Features include data inheritance, granular permissions, transaction-based undo and Google login for editors. The demo shows seven tree levels and estimates ~5 million items if branching continues, an instant website per branch for candidates, CKEditor WYSIWYG content, admin email approval workflows, and a deletion undo working via transaction logs.
