If the candidates are not covered in the media and they don't have the money for a big Bloomberg type propaganda campaign, how is one to find out about all of the stuff you mention? When I go to the voting booth in our local elections, I have frequently never heard of the candidates for the school board, agricultural districts, etc.

All the political ads on tv currently seen (at least by me) in the NOVA are from Bloomberg and are played frequently. Also take a look at YouTube, those will see his billions at work. Local candidates could not compete against those whom Bloomberg owned via campaign dollars. Yes, elections can be bought, especially when the differences are only a few hundred votes. Wonder how he gets the positive press and “suddenly” moving up in the polls?
