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?

It's not on the ballots where I live.

But it might be helpful... since there's more anti-incumbent sentiment here.
