"[2G] is an answer in search of a problem. The sponsors claimed this provides a pathway for more diverse candidates to get elected, but that is not true and not grounded in any best practices nor data. This is about rolling out the red carpet for the status quo and keeping big money in elections."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:lcewtzlzuqj54gb2k7mqj2qf/bafkreige7bbutrmbowvdxbqqa5kiiv532x52ht4qk6qejof75wmpi5fkam@jpeg)
