Solving Voting: You Are Not Voting Properly | SFM E16

Send us Fan MailVoting is... hard. Not only do you have to fill out and mail in your ballot or schlepp to your polling station and wait in line, but it is also just difficult to know who to vote for, especially in down-ballot races. When voting is hard, fewer people do it, and do it accurately to their own values. What if there were an easier way to vote? In this episode our brave solutioners Braus and Scot suggest a new and simple way to make voting easier: a website that tracks and displays all political endorsements. Political endorsements are a fantastic way to figure out how you want to vote for, but political endorsements are not searchable or easily discoverable. You have to go to the specific website of the specific endorser to find them! What if Twitter, Google, Ballotipedia, or a new startup put all political endorsements in one place for us to find and search? Could we get more people to vote, especially more young people? Could we help support democracy?  Support the showHelp these new solutions spread by ...Subscribing wherever you listen to podcastsLeaving a 5-star review Sharing your favorite solution with your friends and network (this makes a BIG difference)Comments?
