Should “-inc” be removed from the incumbents on the ballots?

[VBM]

One of the problems that America has is people staying in Congress for way too long simply because of the incumbency advantage that they have. Should we remove “-inc” from the incumbents on the ballots so that way low info voters won’t disproportionately vote for the incumbent simply because they don’t know anything about said Senate/House race and just default to voting for the incumbent?

No lol - like it or not incumbency has its benefits cause at least you've been doing the job. Without the 'inc' we'd unironically get meme candidates elected in smaller races

A lot of those incumbents are already memes

Everything should be removed from ballots except for the position. You should then have to write in the candidate's name.

Issues with what happens when people misspell the names

To be fair, how could you be planning on voting for Pete Buttigieg, but not familiar enough with him to remember how to spell his name?
Under this system, the brevity and spelling of a candidate's name could start to matter a lot more. Pete Buttigieg, for instance, would have been in even more jeopardy.

By hearing about him on TV but not reading the news.

Sedgwick County, KS has some gold of its own:

Honestly these people are so stupid that it’s probably for the best if their vote doesn’t count

No, I need to know who to vote against lmao

Maybe just do some research?
