It's Time To Have More Faith In Voters - A 2022 Midterm Recap

The 2022 midterms were surprisingly reassuring for our Democracy. Not because of the politicians who won, which we fully expect to continue their awful governance. But because of what it showed us about voters.

The 2022 Midterms are (mostly) over and to America's collective surprise, democracy is still firmly intact!! While most pundits (including us) got almost everything wrong as usual, we discuss reasons why we are encouraged by this election. Our encouragement has nothing to do with our faith in the ability of Democrats or Republicans to effectively govern going forward. It has to do with what the voters showed us, and how it is a small step toward ending the "uni-party" control over American government and crony capitalism. 

Take a little dive into voter ID. From an election winning perspective, it is easy to see the logic from both Republicans and Democrats. But is it really as big a deal as it is made out to be? We discuss.
