http://everypolitician.org/ a democracy-boosting project from mySociety and Poplus, declares that its long-term aim is to collect data about every elected official in the world and to share it in an open format that anyone can use. EveryPolitician
Original data is collected from all types of available sources (either official or crowdsourced), and is being shared in very different formats with different structures. EveryPolitician tries to find the best data sources and standardise the data (help welcomed http://everypolitician.org/contribute.html).
The project's website currently shares data from more then 100 parliaments around the world, and includes an option to export it in both CSV and JSON open formats (following the Popolo Data Specification http://www.popoloproject.com/specs/).
