Only two options #3

Closed dsernst closed 7 years ago

Only two options:

I don't like candidate A, I don't like candidate B

Why do we have to pick between two options?

Look, Hilary Clinton's not the best. And Donald Trump's not the best. Many from within their own parties don't like them. Are they really who you'd want to represent you politically?

Instead we could lift up the best in our communities. Who would you trust to represent you?

Nominate a delegate. Type in the name of the person you would trust most to represent you.

For local politics: pick someone who lives in your jurisdiction. For state politics: pick someone who lives in your district. For national politics: pick someone who lives in your state.

Type in a link to their Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, phone number, email address, GitHub account, or personal website.

You can override their vote anytime.

Not sure this is really a blog post so much as one idea for the text of the delegation page. Would definitely want to remove the lines about Clinton & Trump.

Maybe it could be a sort of announcement blog post when the delegation feature first launches, but that seems a little silly.

I'm going to close this for now.
