Peter Beinart Asks the Press to Call Out Large Campaign Donors
Well written article that should compel journalists to make the wealthy donors behind candidates a bigger issue. These donors need to be identified and their agendas fully explained to voters by the media. If a wealthy donor wants to donate large sums of money to a candidate they should be fair game for the media to go after just like the candidates themselves. We need full disclosure and transparency for all money flowing into campaigns, political parties, and government. Join the End Legalized Corruption Voting Bloc here: |

FAQ
What is a Voting Bloc?
A voting bloc is a group of people who vote together in support of a specific issue or common concern.
Why should I consider Joining a voting bloc?
In our current electoral system large financial donors have a much greater influence on specific issues than individual voters do. By joining a voting bloc you are using your vote strategically to shift the balance of power and influence over our government away from donors and back to the voters.
How is a Voting Bloc different from a petition?
A petition lets candidates and elected officials know you are concerned about a specific issue. A Voting Bloc is way to actively and strategically intervene in an election. Candidates and elected officials are presented with a direct policy choice by the Voting Bloc and they can either risk losing or gaining the bloc of votes based on their actions on a specific issue.
