Yes, and while we're at it, repeal Citizens United!

How very, very sad that elections seem to be determined by how much a candidate receives and spends to influence people to vote for them, rather than being voted in on their merits and qualifications

Larry Draper

This is why I voted for the independent. I beleive that the amount if money the other the candidates spent will be doing favors for the contributors. The people left behind!

Can't be detected by metal detectors.

didn't write that reply. It auto filled. I'm tired of the rich buying elections.

Yep, the spending cap should be what ever the annual pay for the position is. Zero 3rd party spending either.

Gramma Jean

It's reasonable.

It's the candidate's choice to run, and ultimately their investment to do so. If they draw campaign funds from donors, they should be able to spend that money.

If it even needs saying, the Military Industrial Complex is the MOST bloated budget of the entire federal budget. If our current "completely-in-over-his-head" Def Sec + idiot prez hadn't started a completely unnecessary war, we would not have depleted stores of weapons and this be on nobody's radar!

As a tax payer and resident of Deschutes County I am tired of my tax dollars being used to clean up the filth the homeless people leave behind. If this is a deterrent for them living there then we won’t have to clean it up again. Thus saving tax payer dollars and the rocks are a better look.
