California is a meme

The Left can be co-opted

Blacks should be free to use it as much as they want

they will pay to diminish their own population

it's win-win

depends on the color again 😛

you're both missing the point

the cops in California only shoot two kinds of people

Californians and immigrants 👌🏻

i was in cali 4 years ago

I'm sorry 😦

never actually interacted with the californians, was in a place where most of the people were filipinos

only went downtown to visit the piers to have shrimp gumbo

I passed through on a connecting flight

I could feel the liberty draining out of my body

and an ever-increasing desire to celebrate Mexican holidays

it was horrible 😦

🤣

Remember... California actually voted to ban gay marriage. It was overturned by the courts.

California is so damn bad?

Their cities overwhelm the rest of the state.

It’s basically at a boiling point there. They just need to straight up remove their illegal immigrants.

Then change their election system. It allows for only 1 party to end up on the ballots.

So there’s often only Democrat choices in districts, even though republicans run.

I see

Boatloads of issues that have to be resolved to bring them back to sanity. Sadly they won’t happen without something drastic.

That state would actually greatly benefit from a land owner requirement to vote.

So each state has its own rules for elections?

Yeah. Most of them are the same or at least similar.

Most of us have the main 2 parties on the ballot for positions. Those are chosen during a “primary” election earlier that year. Then we have some third party type candidates.

Libertarian, Green, Communist, etc.

For some reason California doesn’t have the same kind of primary election. It allows for 2 candidates from any of the parties for a position. Everyone else has 1 Democrat and 1 Republican plus any of the third party candidates.

So in a sense your elections are locked to two parties?

and after that you get to the third party types?

Yeah. The ones that aren’t Democrat or Republican aren’t even guaranteed to be on every state ballot.

Oh I see

Have to get a certain number of signatures on a petition or something to be added to a state’s ballot.

I see, here depends on the votes each party gets it win some chairs in the parliament while the one with the biggest percent gets to be the president

they can form coalitions etc if there is no clean winner so they don't have to repeat the voting
