Hello,
I urge you to decline election gambling in our democracy. This issue would spread misinformation and manipulation from corporations/investors who will use for selfish interests. The voices of majority of the people in this country far and wide will be ignored when we do not take proactive actions immediately. Election gambling must be rejected because:
- Allowing this proposal will undermine the integrity of our elections and our democracy.
- Allowing betting on election outcomes will create strong financial incentives for special interests to manipulate and interfere in our elections.
- Allowing this proposal will reduce voter confidence, and lead to a perception that election outcomes are not solely determined by voters’ choices, but also by those who bet on election results.
- Allowing this proposal puts personal gain ahead of the public interest.
- Allowing this proposal undermines the principle of one person, one vote – the bedrock of our democracy.
Overall, rejecting election gambling will protect our democracy. Please, I urge you to take action against this fraud act for justice for all.
