I can't get over how quant https://rondesantis.com/ https://rondesantis.com/ is – it's like they time-travelled an intern from 2005 to do it.

- qingcharles 3y agoI can't agree. I think it's pretty fresh, clean, fast, does the job. I actually like it. source: I play a web designer on TV.
- chrisco255 3y agoAt least it's responsive and works on mobile. To be honest if a candidate embraced 90s style web design I would be far more likely to vote for them.
- seanmcdirmid 3y agoI don’t think a candidates choice in web design will affect most voters’ likeliness to vote for them. It is much more important in attracting g volunteers and donators.
- ddoolin 3y agoI actually quite like it. I don't agree with the author's point that it gets "sludgey" in the middle of the gradient either. It's fast and the contrast holds up and it isn't too busy. I do not like Ron at all but his web team/person did a good job IMO.
- DiabloD3 3y agoTo be fair, the only major complaint I have with that website is the gradient background (the strong red and strong blue) are both relatively the same perceptual brightness and tend to lead eyesight away from the content. Else, it looks like somebody's 2010s political blog; it works fine, although it could use more content. Works great for those trying to get the vote of the older folk. Hate the bigoted, sexist, and racist views of the candidate, but I can't hate on his election website too much. Also, given he's trying to get older folk to vote for him, his webdev should consider 16pt (not 16px, this isn't a typo) for the text. As we get older, our eyes get fucking awful.
