What a story Raja! Thanks for sharing. How differently would people vote, how would the entire system change, if voters knew the full range of choices? Maybe one day we will know.
I know this world all too well, both as a former press and as a former Press Secretary for a City Council Representative, I don't miss it. I do remember being that bright-eyed young reporter wanting to cover every candidate for a wide variety of reasons; perhaps the change you seek to make will come through your writing. Being able to self-publish is quite liberating; I look forward to reading more posts on your Substack.

Guaranteed coverage for all who make the ballot? I took the contrary position in 2010. http://r8ny.com/2010/09/08/zero-posterity-the-story-of-e-bey-aka-lentol-soup-the-bane-de-soleil/
