Kobach loses his last marble - playing with a 1/4 of deck

[renocat]

Our great brain dead keeper almighty of the ballot box is asking the legislature to pass a bill that will have straight party line voting.  You only would get to vote for everybody in one party.  Kobach says it is to confusing to go line by line on a ballot to vote.  He is upset that many ballots have blank spaces on them where no vote was cast.  Well Mr. Commie Conservative, I left your name blank because I did want to vote for a glory hound egotistical snake.  You should be impeached for wanting to take from us the power of choice at the ballot box - dumbbutt voters or not.

He's such a douche.  Come on, Kansas.

I think Kobach is basically proof that Satan actually exists.

Iowa has a straight line option. Iowa also only uses paper ballots.

They should take party affiliation off the ballots. Would be hilarious

Yes, they really should.

eff, this would be amazing for all levels but especially easy and effective for local level government.

There would be some off the wall ppl getting elected w/o party affiliation.  I mean, old ppl can barely use the elect ballots.  Can you imagine them having to remember a dozen names while getting frustrated with the elect ballots?

Maybe they would come to the realization that they probably shouldn't be voting.

If a pub suggested this it would be characterized as "voter alienation", for sure.

Pubs would have to up their acorn-y voter registration, absentee ballot, straight-line voting ground game. The dems have a huge advantage in this regard. The dems could just make a cheat sheet for their community organizers to complete to get over the ignorance of their constituency.

I'm sure the pubs would do just that and not miss a beat.

100 percent for getting all party affiliation out of politics, including ballots

[Rage Against the McKee]

I can understand party affiliation for positions like senator. There is no need for that with positions like treasurer. A better solution would be to require each candidate to write a bio in 100 words or less and put that on the ballot.

Might need to do 25 words, because the average attention span of an adult is frighteningly short. Otherwise,  I like it

I know, the (R) and (D) humanizes this rough ridin' dipshits to the point people can vote for them

[Institutional Control]

Municipal and school board elections in Texas do not indicate the candidates political affiliation.  And they don't put their party affiliation on signs and campaign ads.  I just assume they're all Republicans because I'm in Texas.

What's the current rule on who gets the top spot on the ballot? Does that always go to the incumbent? Random? Alphabetical?
