In my state we get a little nonpartisan book in the mail before an election that explains each new law on the ballot in plain text, what a yes vote means, what a no vote means, what the arguments for the law are saying, and what the arguments against the law are saying, and I think we should have that also for the people on the ballot. Here is this person, here is a description of the job they're applying for, here are their positions, this is what they’ve done so far, these are the positive things people like about them, these are the controversies they’ve been involved in. Put that shit in one place for the people so they can be informed and compare accurately.

Hi, we're Fox news, and we're always free to read!

#chit chat #idk if like our government is the one that sends the little books or if it's a nonprofit #but we SHOULD get one for people too #because it's hard to find information on people like board of education or university regent or county commissioner #unless you happen to know those people or know people who knows those people #or if they've done something scandalous #like. everyone knows who's running for president. you can't fucking escape hearing about biden and trump.#but the difference between mr brown and mrs jones running for the smallest office in the ballot???#who knows what they care about!!#i should have double majored in political science and journalism #maybe I'll fucking set up the nonprofit that writes the little books my fucking self #i hate politics why did i get a degree in this shit #if i knew less about this convoluted piece of shit system i would be happier
