I personally don’t vote because the ppl who I can vote for are only in it for the big wage . How about make all political positions min wage. then only no greedy ppl will try and maybe do some good as it is there’s only a choice of evil or slightly different evil and the big cost to even run for government proves it’s wrong it cost thousands just to run .that’s not fair anyone should be able to run for free . And all the advertising and sings they look horrible and prove that the ppl running are waisting money on this stuff and trying to brainwash us with 17 of the same sing in one spot . Fix all that and maybe ppl will regain trust in the voting system

Oh and sorry I forgot to ad this . I took there servy it’s only multiple choice no room even for a comment and it avoided the points I stated previously.
