What Should Voters Do When the Options Are All Equally Bad?
Sally Kohn: How do you know that the choices are bad such that you now need to demand better ones? That's a great question. My first sort of thought in response is I think there's a couple of things going on here, she says. Some democratic theorists who think that having equally bad options actually kind of transforms the decision situation of a voter where they might think voters have some kind of obligation to participate and vote or whatever. But when they're all equally bad, all of those obligations dissolve. She says citizens always have an obligation for to surveil politics to keep tabs on politics.
