Summary
We're told to vote. Vote more. Vote every election like our lives depend on it.
But after speaking with multiple candidates lately - people running without corporate money, without party machines, without special access - one truth kept surfacing. The problem isn't that people don't vote. The problem is who were allowed to vote for.
So in this episode, we're breaking down how the political system filters candidates long before Election Day. Through ballot access laws, fundraising barriers, party gatekeeping, and rules most voters never see. Because by the time a name reaches your ballot, the real decisions have often already been made.
This is about understanding why good candidates struggle to be seen and why so many elections feel like choosing between pre approved options instead of real representation. Because the truth is, we are voting. So the problem isn't on the people, it's on the system.
