I think it is possible to hold all the thoughts in your head at once:

- D65 is doing good things (my son is in the district for a reason!)

- D65 is doing bad things (and possibly some very bad things, like corruption)

- Reasonable people can and should disagree on matters of policy

- We need to turn the heat down on our discourse and move back to a place where people can feel comfortable using their real names again

- Our electoral system is legitimate

- Elections have consequences

- The ideal way to remove people you don't like in power is via elections

- Voters need good information to make decisions and transparency is vital to this

Appreciate and agree with your points. Many things can be true at once. Again, a big reason why I am glad I found your site. Only thing I might differ on is that if someone is putting out a publication saying it contains facts, they should put their name on it. Random citizens giving an opinion without a name is not as big of a deal imo, but maybe I'll rethink it. This is the first time I have commented anywhere. Hoping we get a huge turnout for this election, regardless of who wins. Thanks for all your work and info!
