Welcome to Thalkon Votes
Why did I create this blog?
This is actually something I've been wanting to do for a while, and finally decided to just do it in my current sleep deprived state.
What do I plan to accomplish with this blog?
I would like to provide as much unbiased information on presidential candidates as possible. I've never been good about knowing who to vote for, and this gives me a good reason to look up this information, define it, and perhaps turn it into bite sized chunks for other people that are in similar situations.
How is this blog going to stay unbiased?
The main thing would be that I'll be taking information about the candidates from several sources that agree with each other, but also make sure I find points on both pro and con lists. Also, to attempt to see if any "future sight" has been made on what's being proposed, and how this can potentially help or harm current situations.
What makes me qualified to do this?
Absolutely fucking nothing. I'm not a political science major, or have any other educations that can be directed towards politics. I am simply a working mom that hates election years. I hate the ads, I hate the propaganda, I hate the slander. I listen to other people, and base my opinions off of that, and I know that's not the best thing to do to make an informed decision, and I would like to change that for myself.
So, which way do I lean? Right or Left?
I hate both sides? Granted, all of the parties have their own issues, but I've never felt at home with either the Right or Left party. I've always seemed to gravitate towards the different third parties, (but we all know how well they get into office). So, if you're like me, perhaps you would like to know who the second best party would be to vote for, if for some reason a third party option won't work.
How am I going to organize this blog?
At the bottom of this post I will have a link to whatever that years presidential list is, which will become the table of contents for that voting year (I'm not going to be deleting previous years, not only is that a ton of work, but perhaps past research can prove fruitful in future years). From that years table of contents, the individuals will be broken up into parties, and as long as research has been done on them, their name will be a link to their candidate bio that I've created. I figure I'll have the main info there, and if more information comes up in large amounts, that post will be it's own table of contents for rising issues and interests.
Can I send in information and sources for different candidates?
Sure, but I get final say in if it gets added to the blog or not. To make sure that the information is added or rejected appropriately, I will be verifying the information you send me, and making a decision from what I've found with my own research and any links that you've included. (I'm not accepting Wikipedia articles, sorry.)
Got a question I haven't answered?
Feel free to send an ask or DM. I will attempt to get back to you as soon as I can, and if it's a repeated question I will add it to this main post.
