That's an interesting take, but don't you also think it reduces the influence of November elections on the muni ones? When upwards of billions are being spent on national and state campaigns to drive people to the polls to vote for/against XYZ, don't you feel like the municipal part would be so far down ballot that people would vote more arbitrarily?

Yeah, I'm not sure. I guess it's a tradeoff between turnout and voters who go straight ticket like that. Maybe no good answer.
