      we have this in my region and it’s good, but sometimes weirdos creep in just to exploit the funding or troll on tv when their advertising spot has to be aired mandatorily. it’s not perfect, but works.

        Sounds objectively better than the current system where the weirdos get funded by billionaires and legitimized far more than the litany of normal candidates
