Three rules do all the work.
Specific.
Every ask says where things are now, where they should be, and by when. No wishes.
Scarce.
Three votes a year. You can't back everything, so what you back says something.
Accountable.
Each ask names who can deliver it, local first, so you know who to hold to it.
Rules we hold ourselves to.
- Unverified until checkedUnverified
- Every number carries this label until someone independently checks it. We'd rather say so than look authoritative.
- No party without a source
- We never attach a party name to a position unless we can link to where they said it.
- Your votes stay private
- No account needed to vote. Only the totals are public.
Spend your three.
Pick what you want changed, and see who is responsible for changing it.
