  1. EQUAL funding for ALL candidates ???

    Of course, NOT likely since the gerrymander MONSTERS in 1 party safe seat gerrymander districts do NOT want ANY opposition.

    P.R. NOW — to END the minority rule gerrymander regimes in the Congress, all 50 State legislatures and many local govt regimes.

  2. Most of these types of laws mainly help the incumbent. The bill shouldn’t get too far.
