Opinion of taking party membership off of ballots

It seems to work pretty well in Nebraska. Support

If you're so uninformed about the elections you are voting in that you don't even know what party the candidates are in, perhaps your ignorant ass should not be voting.  Which is why it makes sense that most Dems and Pubs would be against it, they prefer an ignorant voter.

You realize that my ballot usually has sixty-odd races on it, over half of which are various judge candidates? My memory isn't THAT good.

Tbf if anything that just means there are too many elected positions. Stuff like idk; land comissioner or whatever is stuff that should be appointed by the governor, not elected

I love the assertion that this would lead people to "do more research". No, people would just vote based on the candidates' last names instead.

I mean, I suppose you could "fix" this by making all elections write-in only and allowing only people who file to run as valid write-ins

Though as I said turnout would plummet
