143. You can't be serious. 96% of incumbents are re-elected if
they run. With approval rates under 20% how is this possible except the PROCESS is rigged. Criminal prosecution, public disgrace, lifetime concern about revenge execution should hold one timers in check.

I agree with multiple parties and public funding of all elections. I also believe in public funding of defense lawyers in ALL criminal cases regardless of the ability of the accused to pay.

I also believe in public transportation, but that's another thread.
