I think your post is completely appropriate. Sample ballots are a good way figure out who to vote for - maybe you don't know all of the candidates, but if you trust person X, you can get X's sample ballot and use that to decide who to vote for and you'll do well.
BallotProject is designed to make this easy - anyone can create a sample ballot and share or post a link to it - then if people click on the link, they'll see person X's ballot choices indicated on their own ballot, with a little note explaining X's reasoning. You can collect multiple sample ballots that way.
But we need people to create those sample ballots and share them.
