Hi everyone. Democracy by the Numbers is back this week from an unplanned vacation to start the summer. I hope you have all had a nice week.
This post is an especially fun one; we are starting a new question-and-answer feature for the blog! Some writers call this a “mailbag.” You may also think of it, to borrow from the pandemic work-from-home nomenclature, as an “asynchronous” “ask me anything” (AMA). But I am just going to call it a “Q&A” for now.
You can submit questions by filling out this form. More details follow.
Here’s a preliminary plan for how this is going to work. I will run one Q&A post roughly once a month or when someone sends in an excellent question—whichever comes first. For each issue, I will collect several questions submitted via the form and pick one to answer for the entire subscriber list. I will select several other questions to answer for those who support the blog with a paid subscription.
The first Q&A will run Tuesday, June 14th. So please send in your questio…
