Question

the ____ ballot is a handicap because tue voters cannot possibly learn enough about the candidates for all offices to vote intelligently

Answer 1

Answer: Long

Explanation:

In the United States, the same election may include different federal offices, as well as state elections for the legislature and judges as well as state referenda and amendments. The long ballot is considered problematic because it holds so many decisions, that it is believed to be nearly impossible to make them all at once in an informed manner.

Answer 2

the long ballot is a handicap because the voters cannot possibly learn enough about the candidates for all offices to vote intelligently.

A long ballot is a ballot that lists all candidates, for all positions, from all political parties, available to a specific voting district.

A handicap is an event or situation that places a person, in this case a voter, at a disadvantage and makes it harder for he/she to do something.
