ive been looking at the integrity index and its really surprising how bad campaign finances are. but at the same time, it is good to see some candidates be progressive about it (usually are the progressive candidates anyway)

i think its a great tool that should be used more because who the fuck wants to vote for flock mcuber candidate who campaigns on stuff they literally cannot fulfill because of their backers and special interests

democrats are so funny on here because like in california theyll get heinous ratings but then their main competition is also a democrat who is the polar opposite. republicans get very poor ratings but its usually like C- to F instead of either F- or A with democrats

not sure whats so offensive about saying stuff like ritchie torres is a dirtbag sellout. like its funny to see the polar opposites but the main good thing is that youll have progressive candidates who genuinely stand on what they believe in. check their page and they talk about ending citizens united or campaign finances reform and theyll have an A. its all progressive democrats. the centrist ones are just diet republicans maxing out on their sellout
