Yeah, it's really hard to throw any support to a party packed with Justine Wadsacks. What initiative(s) are you excited about this year? You have any faith in Ranked choice voting (or whatever they're doing now) to change the dynamics of who makes it on the november ballot?

Obvio i will be excited about the abortion one if it ever comes out, altho i have heard so often that opening a constitutional convention can lead to alot of unrelated stuff but i think its worth it. Justice for All has always been an excellent one. I dont know of others yet. Raiding wages got mayor and council has a logic to it but “ excited” i am not on that one. My gut feeling is thst ranked choice would probably be an improvement but i dont know enough about it. Perhaps a primer on it would be good?
Embarrassed to say i am still a free subscription to tucson agenda so i assume i dont get to comment. Depends on the councilperson, hank, as to their value. Kozachik? A raise and more! Lane? A vote for Ortega….( im actually not in her district so i couldnt do that even if i wanted to…)
I fully support ranked choice voting as a way to elect candidates who represent a larger portion of citizens. And hopefully the system would attract candidates who wish to appeal to our better nature and not our extremes. I don’t know when it could be fully implemented. It will be a big job in this entrenched two party system.

Yeah, we did something a long time ago when they were just getting started but probably worth revisiting.

And did you comment on the Tucson Agenda today? They're talking about city council raises. How much is a city councilman worth to you, Betts?
