Ask These Questions, Hand-Picked Undecided Town Hall Audience, I Dare Ya
The two major presidential candidates make their way to UNCOUNTED’s hometown of Nashville, TN and Belmont University on Tuesday for the second of three presidential debates, and we have a few suggestions for questions:
- What can we do to stop the systematic disfranchisement that has plagued recent elections?
- How can we assure that the person who wins in November has been elected fairly?
- If voting is the cornerstone of our democracy, then why isn’t every vote counted?
- And why can’t every American who wants to vote, do so without interference?
Hmmm. What are the odds, do you think, of these being asked..? Right. So. What to do? What to do? I KNOW! Let’s put on a show!
