The US gov has many well-documented resources on identity management systems.
One concept of identity management systems is the idea of "Levels of Assurance" (LOA). There are 4 in the US system, on a scale from 1-4. For our system, we could provide a comparable scale.
Level of Assurance 0 would correspond to someone who has simply attached information to their account that matches that of a registered voter. There is no verification that this account is controlled by that individual.
Level of Assurance 1 signifies that this account-holder can access mail delivered to the address of the registered voter they claim to be.
Would be interesting to facilitate keybase.io integration.
