If those people are actually taking home $300k/year after deducting things like business expenses and student loan payments, then they're either way overpaid or they seriously need a vacation.
I looked up the one for Washington, and unfortunately it looks like an organization I would neither want to join nor be allowed to join because of the type of personnel they need and the legal limit of how big it can be. It has 120 members, all officers.
It varies a lot by state. Washington primarily uses mail-in paper ballots. I love never having to visit a polling location. (In-person voting is an option here, but everyone I know votes by mail).
My EDC is a Spyderco Para 3, but IMHO Kershaw is a great budget brand. I really like the Iridium, but the finish is a bit too delicate for my taste because I keep my knife in the same pocket with my keys.
There are other kinds of monitors that come pretty close, but definitely not for under $100. For example, the Nebula display on some Asus laptops, or the Nixeus NX-EDG34S (which is no longer available, but I assume there are equally good monitors available using the same tech).
