It’s worth a shot. Not like 99.9% of people even consider voting records when choosing a candidate. It could eliminate lobby influence to a degree.

As would requiring a big 'L' tattooed across the forehead of every lobbyist.


Imagine the conversation: Oh, you're a lobbyist? For who? F'you....

Really, the main thing I'm thinking is that "activists" would lose a little bit of influence/power.

I don't like political activists very much. I like regular folk. Perhaps discreet voting might make Senators more like regular folk and less like someone worried about activists attacking them.

Senators come and go. Activists always hover around D.C.
