I made a post about this the other day because it’s a rabbit hole I went down the other week haha. Even got banned from one of the “Protect Our Coast NJ” Facebook pages when I pointed out the donate link literally linked to a big oil think tank…

I like this idea but I don’t want to pay for every person that wants to run ever, especially if they had no chance of winning anyway. I think there should be a limit to how much you’re allowed to raise and no contributing yourself and if people like your policies they can donate and if not well you probably didn’t have much of a chance to win anyway.

I think in a local election like school board seeing a neighbor have a sign in their yard might sway people, especially when the candidates aren’t supposed to be a certain party and don’t have much press otherwise. But that’s a perfect world and not the one we live in, I think seeing campaign signs are atrocious.
