      Have you ever wanted to run for Congress? Odds are you never can. To get on the ballot in most states you need 2k registerd voter signatures. Based on me getting 40 it would take you 12.7 hrs for 55 days to get them all with 2 people. The system is rigged to keep people out.

      Unless you have money or connections you may never get on the ballot. Then to win it takes an average of 1.5 million dollars. CA has a filling fee which is $1,740. If not for that I would never get 2k signatures. Saving that much hurts on a fixed income. Some may never b able to.

      Of the people, by the people and for the people does not really describe our system if so many may never even have a chance to get on the ballot. We need fair elections then maybe we can have fair laws.

      Thanks for shedding light on this particular issue! Most people I know who are well qualified to run for and hold public office do not readily have $1.5 million. How would you propose making elections more fair?

      That seems fair...unlike the adulteration of campaign funding now. I wish you lots of luck in your run against Devin. He has deep pockets full of money. A lot of people want to see him stay right where he is. Keep fighting!
