Why would the chances be equal? If we ban campaigning, should we also make it illegal to be gregarious and likeable?

My point is more that you are bemoaning your lack of influence and power, not pointing out some glaring unfairness in the system

likeability and eg integrity of character are much better indicators of a good candidate than the amount of money they can spend to get their name promoted.

equal chance refers to the awareness and knowledge about each candidate among the voting population. that can be achieved by promoting all candidates equally.

for other qualities, we need to get a better understanding what makes good candidates, and educate voters to choose candidates based on that.
