Elections

Why don't more people vote?
Could it be because they think that both candidates are unworthy of their vote?

How about a new choice for the ballot;
( ) NONE OF THE ABOVE.

If more than a certain percentage of the voters make this choice, the candidates are disqualified and the parties must offer two new candiadates.

Or how about amateurs for office.
We could choose the next officeholder by lottery. Okay Joe Schmo, it's your turn to be the Representative from the 1st Congressional District of Ohio. Maybe that would bring some common sense back to government.
Because you would never know who the candidate would be, the special interests would not have the ability to influence you future conduct with their campaign donations before you took office.
