MEMBER PRIORITIES

Is your issue missing?
Put it up for a vote.

Members can submit new issues anytime. Every November, we poll the full member base: you re-rank the current priorities and vote on submitted alternatives. Anything that outranks our lowest priority takes its spot for the year ahead.

Support for candidates is always shown as percentages and rankings of voting members, never raw totals, and submissions appear without the submitter's name.

Open for member voting

Submit a candidate issue

Every submission is reviewed against the standards below before it opens for member voting. You can have 2 submissions in play at a time (0 of 2 used).

ISSUE TITLE (3 to 45 characters, like the six on the ballot)

0/45

THE CASE FOR IT (10 to 220 characters)

0/220

Review standards (every submission is checked against these):

Non-partisan and campaignable: something broad, practical majorities could back.
A goal, not a claim: no accusations about named people or organizations.
Federal policy scope: something Washington can actually act on.
Fits the ballot format: clear title, one-paragraph case.

Issue Submission & Voting Terms

These supplemental terms apply to the issue-submission and voting feature under Section 1 of our Terms of Service, starting the first time you use it.

1. Eligibility. Submitting and voting require an active membership.

2. Your submission. By submitting a candidate issue, you give Main Street Lobby a license to publish it and to edit it for clarity, style, and compliance with the review standards. Submissions are shown without your name. If your issue is promoted to the ballot, it becomes part of the ballot and remains there even if you later cancel your membership or delete your account.

3. Review. Nothing opens for voting until it passes review against the published standards. We may reject or edit submissions that don't meet them, and our decision is final.

4. Voting. One vote per member per candidate issue. You can withdraw your vote, or your own submission, while voting is open. Support is always shown as percentages and rankings, never raw counts.

5. The November poll. Candidate votes accumulate through the year. Each November we poll the full member base; a candidate that outranks the ballot's lowest-ranked priority takes its spot for the year ahead. We run the poll and certify the result.

6. These terms are part of the Terms of Service and control for this feature.

By submitting, you agree to the Issue Submission & Voting Terms above.
