2024 Elections are coming up!
vs
I am interested in the political running platform that each have. So I decided to do some research and wanted to share my findings.
If I missed any please let me know and I will update, it was really difficult to find the issues from both people.
I put any similar portions in bold and any direct opposites are underlined.
I hope this can be a space to talk and discuss about the policies and what are the consequences of each action if they were to happen.
