I have two .shp. One is a polypoint with voting locations and the
other area polygons that are the voting precincts. I was wondering if
it was at all possible to put a small map on my site where people
could enter their address or maybe the road they live on and the map
would know what pct their in and give them directions to the correct
voting location?? If so how could I pull this off?

This thread from the v2 group discusses a map that does something very
similar (at least the first 2 pieces):
http://groups.google.com/group/google-maps-api/browse_frm/thread/9c582e0c9ea3744c/d81d1ebf8c7ae142#d81d1ebf8c7ae142

I wouldn't think it should be to hard to do something similar in the
v3 API and add the directions piece.
