    • Trivia
      Partially inspired by the 2017 special election for Georgia's 6th congressional district, where the Democratic and Republican parties and groups supporting them spent more than $55 million combined - the most expensive House Congressional election in U.S. history.
    • Goofs
      All elections for mayor in Wisconsin are non-partisan.
    • Quotes

      Diana Hastings: This system, the way we elect people, it's terrifying. And exhausting. And I think it's driving us all insane.

    • Crazy credits
      There are many extra scenes after the closing credits start to roll, and those credits restart several times. When they're about to end, Trevor Potter, former FEC chairman gives a brief, funny interview to director Jon Stewart.

    An Inside Look From the Outside

    This film came out just when it needed to. An unbiased look at American politics and how BOTH parties take advantage of the very people they're supposed to help.

    Top notch actors playing characters you will love and then those you love to hate. Easily could have been another run of the mill take on a story we'll all seen before, but thanks to Jon Stewart we got something refreshing that also manages to subvert your expectations.

    Definitely worth a watch. 7/10
