By American-Statesman Editorial Board Perhaps the most novel concept on the May 1 ballot is the proposal for Democracy Dollars under Proposition H. The measure would provide publicly funded $25 vouchers that Austin voters could donate to the mayoral or City Council candidate of their choice, in addition to the regular cash contributions that candidates collect. Prop H seeks to address a sizable imbalance: Currently, two-thirds of the campaign contributions come from donors in just three of the 10 Austin City Council districts. Providing a mechanism for more people to donate to candidates could improve voter participation and empower more candidates to run.
