• Idaho needs Public Financing of Elections
    Our government is supposed to be accountable to the people, but instead it is accountable to the funders. Currently the funders are not the people. This is corruption. Public financing of campaigns would make the people the funders. We need a Hamilton-Grant project for Idaho: $10 from state treasury for each voter as a voting voucher, up to $50 private contributions,:candidates opt in voluntarily but take notihing else

  • ADD a 'RETAIN NONE' ballot for Circuit/ County Judge Elections or REMOVE the RETAIN ALL Ballot
    Voters can't name 2 County Judges, yet, in Cook County alone, a Judge has NEVER been NOT Retained! They are accountable to no one and they count on you not knowing who they are-and your apathy. Would you approve a 'RETAIN ALL' button when voting for congress? Then how did you let these Judges have a RETAIN ALL ballot without at least a RETAIN NONE ballot too! Let's set our own term limits for them- Time to clean up and take back OUR courts-start by signing here and also read www.cleanupthecourts.wordpress.com See the abuse and the millions you are spending on nameless faces

  • Oklahoma Wants Write In Option On Ballots!
    When you live in Oklahoma and you don't like the 2 options given to you by the 2 main parties what do you do? Surely a lot of people do not even vote in that case. We the People of Oklahoma would like not to be told who we have to vote for. We want the option to write in our choice if it is not listed by the main established parties. The right to vote has become something most people do not use. This is because a lot of times it is like choosing between the lesser of two evils. We want to take back what the right is and use it to better gain voters in our state.

    Redistricting for NYS Senators. The proposed redistricting plan puts the entire Town of Ossining in District 38 which consists of communities on the west side of the Hudson River while Ossining is on the east side. We are asking that Ossining be put into a New York State Senate district which is entirely in Westchester County.

  • Public Service Pay
    Insuring that those that protect our freedom of government are monitarily honored properly. Due to recent budget cuts it only makes sense that public servants such as but not limited to any political position have severe monitary regulations. As we do not want to be seen as a socialistic government, our government should not be allowed to participate in seemingly socailist practices. Congressmen and Senators should only be paid salary and recieve medical benifits becoming of a state or national employee while in office. If their constituants do not feel they have performed their job duties well enough to be reelected, they should loose there pay just as all people who loose a job do.

  • GET THIS DONE AND GET IT OVER WITH!!
    1/ Constituional Carry: Purcell is asleep at the wheel on this or she has her own agenda which is not the same agenda of the majority of Georgia citizens. Whoever gets the credit for this one could run for governor of Georgia and win by a landslide. Those who oppose it couldnt get elected to dog catcher! 2/ Stop the theiving Clerks of Court from making an additional $100,000.00 per year by stealing the citizens' money from the passports. There are less than a half dozen who think that using our employees to do all the work, having us pay them, and then the Clerks pocket all the money IS CRIMINAL. FIX THIS LOOPHOLE!!!

  • Getting Over the Pledge
    We tax the poor and middle class more heavily than the rich. We don't have enough money to sustain schools, courts, public safety, or the environment. It is past time to address this issue.

  • RECALL JERRY BROWN NOW!
    We as citizens of California NEED TO STOP JERRY BROWN from further destroying our State with his ill conceived and malicious ways of handling financial problems. The way to FIX our issues is not by cutting education or funding for animal shelters. The way to approach these issues is by looking at the HUGE WASTE of MONEY in Goverment Administration!

  • Please Support Delaware's HB 126
    It's time that the University of Delaware and the Delaware State University provide more transparency on how they operate. The days of avoiding Freedom of Information Act requests by making decisions that affect the public in standing committees should end.

  • Stop Overpaying Congress!
    Every member of Congress makes more money than they are worth. To be truly representative of their constituents, their pay should be lowered and they should not have the ability to give themselves raises at taxpayer expense.
