About Me
Welcome to my site!
I’m Ballot, the purple dog.
I’m just a dog watching the politics of politics. I just want things to get better.
I LOVE politics. The freedom to vote, be heard, impact change from the local level, etc etc.
But I don’t like the politics of the politics!
The fighting, bad ads, meanness and inability to work together because of ……well, whatever reasons. POLITICAL reasons. Just plain annoying.
It’s not about the party, it’s about the people! And, as most dogs would agree, we do like people. Most of the time, I observe an almost fanatical level of dog love in this country. A good thing.
Back to the issue of democracy. THE Ballot gives people power, yes? Down the ballot where all candidates find their way through the political maze during each election cycle. Hence, the fun wordplay on my name. (see the poster where I launched myself in Texas.) Clever, yes? I’m working on branching out from Texas with my brand…as they like to say on Madison Ave.
So, my theory is is that politics makes it really challenging to find out the basics of what we need as a people. So much infighting. Which is why I did this site. To get you through the basics. So then you’ll vote….And, I will reach self-actualization.
A little bit about me.
I’m pretty chilled out. My owner says I’m so relaxed that there are times she wonders if I’ve flatlined. I’m compassionate, caring, and a little opinionated.
And, I’m also of Italian descent.
Apparently.
Welcome to my world. More to come.
