Discussion on What to Ask Primary Candidates

Are you wondering why we have such a big disconnect between what people want and what our politicians vote for?

Poll after poll shows that a majority of Americans support policies like progressive taxation, yet many elected officials continue to vote against them. This gap between public opinion and political action raises an important question: how do we hold candidates accountable for where they truly stand?

As 2026 is a big election year, we want to make it easier for people to ask candidates questions to see where they really stand on a series of issues.

Our team has updated our Policy Platform (link) and we’d like to invite you into a conversation about what questions candidates should be answering during the primary season.

• What are the most important issues voters can ask candidates about?
• How can we frame questions to avoid vague or evasive “non-answers” and get clear, substantive responses?
