If distributing SNAP funds is not as easy as hitting a button on a computer, the government ought to fix that & follow the law.

If you're one of my New York City friends who's watched my election blog posts about downticket races in Minneapolis & St. Paul go by and muttered "I wish someone did that here," BEHOLD, SOMEONE IS DOING THAT FOR NYC!
HEY NYC PEOPLE here's some useful information on judicial races, and ballot initiatives from my friend @harihareswara.net. Like my blog on MSP, she offers endorsements, but pulls together info so it's useful even if you disagree with her:

Two things can be true at once:

Not acknowledging (2) makes it harder to make the (very valid!) argument for (1).
