Alexander Valiensi Kent, MSW (I-WI3)

I’m a voter directed Independent candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives from Wisconsin’s 3rd District for the November 3rd 2026 U.S. Midterm Elections.

I am a social worker, father, husband, and the author of Voter Directed Democracy and founder of Voter Directed Network.

We believe that is time to evolve politically as a country and collectively choose an online political system of true and full political freedom, real self-governance, and transparent popular sovereignty on all issues. It is time to actually follow the U.S. Constitution and see what will happen when the real Will of the People is relentlessly sourced and implemented and voters’ collective wisdom, knowledge, and compassion are truly respected and fully empowered to create all of our social, political, and economic systems.

We are running a Voter Empowerment campaign and believe in:

“One voter, one vote on all issues.”

We support honest and transparent, modern and evolved, accountable and peaceful, online and independent democratic republicanism where all voters Yes/No vote on all issues, legislative bills, and executive orders and the democratic republic follows this clear, precise, and objectively determined Will of the People.

An Independent voter directed/voter controlled democratic republic is 100% consistent with the U.S. Constitution. The U.S. Constitution does not include political parties because they always fall to corruption. Party controlled government is an authoritarian divide and conquer political system and a corruption of the values, principles, and ideology of democracy and republicanism within the U.S. Constitution. All political parties function to centralize and consolidate political power away from voters. Thus all political parties are authoritarian political structures. Both political parties in the U.S. are beholden to and serve the will of the authoritarians who fund and control both parties. Party politics is designed to create an Illusion of Choice and control voters. In contrast to party politics, representing voters in a real democracy via a constitutional republic has always required the same thing. What does real political representation actually look like? Asking voters. Ask voters on everything, they will tell you what they need and then the republic does it. It is truly that simple. A modern republic must relentlessly- 24/7/365- openly and transparently source and then implement the real Will of the People. The peaceful political evolution of “one voter, one vote on all issues” solves all of the problems of the functioning of democracy our republic. It puts real Yes/No political power where it should always be in a republic- equally distributed in the hands of all votes on all issues.

There are many different names and models of authoritarian governing mentalities (governments) but they all share similar structures and the same goals of maintaining authoritarian control over social, political, and economic power. All authoritarians want to control their people socially, politically, and economically. Most authoritarian states and political systems are a combination of various authoritarian models. However, in all authoritarian governing mentalities there is a small group of authoritarians in power. Monarchy has kings or queens; Military dictatorships has dictators; and our authoritarian system in the U.S. of party controlled Flawed Democracy and oligarchy, plutocracy, and kleptocracy has oligarchs. We also call the oligarchs the deep state, the shadow government, and other names. In all authoritarian governing mentalities there is also a system of oppressive political and economic control that the authoritarians use to maintain their grasp on immense wealth and power. This politically empowered group serve the will of the authoritarians and are used to control the people/citizens/voters in various regions of the nation. Monarchs had a system of lordship; Military dictatorships have a system of generals; and the oligarchs in the U.S. have the system of party politics. These are all very similar authoritarian political systems with different names.

It is important to note that any time any authoritarian political system implements the real Will of the People and does something good that the people/citizens/voters want, it is always because the people/citizen/voters pressured the political system into this type of action. Good political decisions survive the corruption, greed, and violence of authoritarian political systems. Authoritarian political systems never naturally produce good, useful, informed, just, or wise political decisions that benefit their people/citizens/voters because authoritarian political structures are intentionally removed from what the people need and want for their nation.

Authoritarianism of any kind and ignoring the real Will of the People is evil and always leads to immense human suffering, violence, greed, and hatred. All of the worst events across all of human history all resulted from authoritarian political decisions. All voters and elected officials should instead be equally empowered Independents like the U.S. Constitutions intends. Independent critical thinking, independent moral reasoning, and free thinking have always been essential to creating and maintaining collective freedom, liberty, and justice for all voters/people.

We the People of the U.S. declared our Independence from the oppressive authoritarianism of monarchy and empire. We the People of the U.S. now in 2026 must again declare our Independence from the authoritarianism by choosing to evolve away from the oppression, corruption, and violence of party politics. We the People must protect our freedoms and liberties by choosing to evolve our republic into an online voter directed/voter controlled system. To protect our republic and democratic freedoms and liberty, voters must choose an online political system of full voter empowerment on all issues that is relentlessly anti-authoritarian.

We are also running an Anti-Corruption campaign and believe that:

“All political donations are political corruption.”

All political donations come with an expectation of elected official action. Even a small $5 donation comes with an expectation and thus is a form of mild political corruption.

We are trying to get as much money out of elections and political decision making as possible. To this end, we are NEVER taking anyone’s money ever- no donors, no lobbyists, no Super PACs, and no political parties interfering with our voter directed political process. We are just trying to represent voters in this honest, transparent, modern, and evolved way. We are proving that you can and should ask voters Yes/No on every issue using the internet and that you can run a federal election campaign without the corrupting influence of money.

Ideas should win elections, not who spent the most money.

To be clear, if you use over $5k to get elected you didn’t win anything. You paid for the win and bought the election. Party politics has always been a money game that was created to serve the will of authoritarians, destroy the republic, and ignore the Will of the People. Real political representation and full political freedom in any democratic republic can only ever exist by asking voters directly on all issues.

For any election, decision, or issue in any democratic republic at any level of government, the best ideas should always win- not what platform/party/candidate/industry/ corporation/institution spent the most money on ads and propaganda. In a republic, having more money should never give you more political power.

As Voter Directed candidates we also believe in standing against Negative Identity Politics.
