Benefits of Fair and Clean Elections

 

  • Makes candidates create legislation that is good for the public and not in the interest of big donors.

 

  • Levels the financial playing field for candidates.

 

  • Decreases the time that politicians spend on fundraising and "Dialing for Dollars." This allows government officials to spend more time working on issues and grassroots campaigns rather than concentrating on fund raising for future elections!

 

  • Gives all people an opportunity to be a voice in government and run for a position in local, state, or national government. Fair and Clean Elections supports all citizens no matter what their income is, what their gender is or what their ethnicity is.

 

  • Allows for a more Democratic process and can increase voter turn out because they feel more important and they will know their voice matters!
