The semester's over, and I got an A in at least 3/4 of my classes! (Still waiting on the grade for the last one.)
On a sadder note, today I managed to finish voting... and selecting "No Candidate" for, I'd say, at least half the races.
Sometimes, American democracy just makes me want to cry.
Congrats on the personal level, if nothing else.
Agreed, 2-party sucks. At least give us ranked-choice!

Or, at the very least, provide a centralized portal where we can find relevant information regarding candidates and proposed laws. Under democracy, voting is my job, so give me the resources I need to do a good job.

This system of government was established on the foundation of an informed electorate. The fact that nothing like this actually exists in any official capacity, especially in this information age, is just infuriating.
Man, imagine if there was an official ELI5 website for bills, laws, taxes, candidates and their platforms, etc. Not just a one-paragraph summary of a 300-page monstrosity, but a proper explanation that anyone can understand.
Nice!
