Ask Questions to 2016 Presidential Candidates

Fire up the question machine. It’s 2016 elections time, which means it’s AskThem time. First GOP debate is 9pm ET tonight.

Ask good questions to the Presidential candidates and we’ll deliver them over Twitter for an official response. We’re working to reinforce the expectation that candidates will regularly respond to questions from the Internet public – and that major media will raise them in every debate.

First, GOP debate participants, in random order (not strictly by polling or last name) – click the button on their profile pages to “ask this person a question”, publish your question, and we’ll help promote it.
