Journalist
 * Talk to your target at night, allowing you to interrogate them or share information: same job as the Jailor, but weaker:
 * You reveal your name - you can later be killed by one of them
 * You have no executions - they will not be pressured to answer you
 * You do not roleblock or protect your target
 * You also see visitors, exactly the same as Lookout
 * You also reveal your will. Overpowered ability, allows you to 100% confirm yourself and start a whisper game.

Launderer (plus Janitor and your Mafia home will be squeaky clean) Rather than manipulating a vote, how about blocking it (only +1 voting power)? That wouldn't be terribly overpowered.
 * 1) 4 Townies vs 2 Mafia
 * 2) You have -2 voting power compared to the Townies (2 minus 4)
 * 3) Change one of their votes: it becomes 3vs3
 * 4) you have effectively gained 2 voting power (like the Mayor). Not unique, unlimited ability, therefore overpowered.
 * 5) 5 Townies, 1 revealed Mayor, 2 Mafia
 * 6) You have -6 voting power compared to the Townies (2 minus 5+3)
 * 7) You change the Mayor's vote, it becomes 5vs5
 * 8) You have effectively gained 6 voting power (overpowered, no matter what).
