Democratic
participation can skyrocket when all elections include the option of
"None Of The Above."
Voters often
confront elections with failed options. After the “None Of The
Above” option becomes a universal choice in all ballot questions,
citizens can circumvent a bogus ballot process.
When making a
statement at the ballot box becomes worthless, frustrations mount and
street violence ensues. Many don't vote.
Uncontested
elections evaporate with NOTA. Incumbents must beat NOTA. When the
wire-pullers and powerful put up straw candidates or token
placeholders, they'd still need to deal with the affordable, always
handy choice of "None of the Above." Let's terminate the
option between "Bad" and "Terrible." If the
choice for voters is among "Bad," "Terrible" and
"None Of The Above," then there is hope.
Everyone wins as
victors out tally both second place and NOTA. With NOTA, voters
demand a fresh do over. New candidates are advanced as a new election
is scheduled.
