Why we need to support local, locally-owned journalism: how many people these days get to have a newspaper that does a graph like this?
Across: the names of the candidates.
Down: the questions being asked them.
Their answers: No in red, Yes in green, with a little chat emoji to link to ‘see more of my answer on this’ if the candidate so desires.
Which also means that at a glance you can see which ones didn’t think it worth their time to explain their point of view nor to try to persuade.
It’s certainly not all you need to know about any of them but it is definitely a great starting point.

They announced on the news that the Republican presidential candidate’s statement is missing from the state’s voter pamphlet – because he never supplied one. However, his name does appear on the ballot.
I wonder how many phone calls they got before issuing that notice.
There are hotly contested races in Washington … we get to see all the ads because they are part of the Portland media market. It can be quite comical when an ad ends with “I’m X and I approved this message” promptly followed by “I’m not voting for X because …” in the next one. I think they should put a bug on the ad saying which state it’s for.
