8. I would support it the way the system is now
what's the point of having reps. when they are so preoccupied with reelection funds? yes, I would prefer that they get reelected on merit and how well they represented their people back home but unfortunately that's not the way it is. IF we could prohibit actively campaigning and fund raising until the year of reelection that might work.
