Rep. Bradley Byrne launched his own take on March Madness in politics today.

Byrne launched a new online survey to allow constituents to vote on what they consider to be the worst executive overreaches of the Obama Administration, according to his office.

The survey is known as the “Not So Sweet 16 Tournament.” The challenge will allow people to vote on individual matchups in search of the worst example of overreach by the Obama Administration.

Additionally, the survey allows Byrne to see what issues his constituents are most worried about.

“It is time for the Sweet 16 in the basketball tournament, but I hope people will also pay attention to the ‘Not So Sweet 16’ challenge,” Byrne said in a statement. “This challenge allows my constituents to share their opinion and let me know what examples of overreach by the Obama Administration they are most concerned about. Executive overreach and an inability to follow the law has been a real problem under this administration, and I believe it is important we draw attention to these issues. I hope everyone will take just a second to vote.”
