Time to Research your Elections
In light of yesterday’s election, which will undoubtedly draw our moderate nation more to the cusp of extremism and oligarchy, you might evaluate what your representative in Washington is doing, relative to your own wishes. I find researching your candidate a better voting guide, much better than being guided by robocalls, avalanches of mailers, offensive 30-second-bomb-your-opponent TV ads by rich vested interests, and the wholesale buying of votes by billionaires in critical races – in all, $4 billion spent in midterm, more than 25% dark money and by groups outside the voting area.
