In most elections worth a damn there are competing candidates so it’s not an issue.  In a noncompetitive election, it is reasonable to suggest that people should have some sort of a choice to meaningfully express their preferences.  If the only choice is to accept or reject a whole group of noncompeting candidates it is an especially strange election.  I already voted but think there’s a governance issue that merits consideration.

cheers

Bill
