Wrong Again.... Actually I would like to see all state and local elections limited to 3 months campaigning- and then a month which to vote...
6 months campaigns for President...3 months- convention- 3months- vote...
But I'm sure someone would squeal about that being unconstitutional under the first amendment freedom of speech...
Months to vote? Months? So I'm guessing that if you vote on the first day of the 3 month timeframe but later find out that your favorite guy was a child molester and serial killer, you'd be able to change your vote?
So much for October surprises. They'd need to have a fall surprise.
NO- state and local- limited to 3 months campaigning - with you voting during the final month....
Presidential 6 months campaigning total-- 3 months- during which they hold all primaries and caucus's- then the convention- then 3 more months of campaigning during which you vote the final month....
In this day and age the media knows how many times a guy farted on June 3 2003 by the end of the first day- they don't need months to vet them.....
