most people in our town is already voting in person

2020-10-16 02:36:35 UTC  

mail is fraud, CNN and twitter will keep saying it isnt

2020-10-16 02:36:38 UTC  

I voted for Trump today after work

2020-10-16 02:36:42 UTC  

good

2020-10-16 02:36:44 UTC  

So rationalize your platform to any who are interested, without demanding that they do the same in turn.

2020-10-16 02:36:54 UTC  

But if they want to, let them.

2020-10-16 02:36:57 UTC  

my friend doesnt wanna help organize it

2020-10-16 02:37:00 UTC  

The conservative side of the interwebs woulda gotten hold of that immediately @The Central Scrutinizer , they probably didn't wanna deal with the backlash

2020-10-16 02:37:05 UTC  

he says that he hates how we "have to protest" to get participation hours

2020-10-16 02:37:07 UTC  

which is kinda true

2020-10-16 02:37:13 UTC  

republicans (ie, me and him) are literally fucked

2020-10-16 02:37:19 UTC  

99% of opportunities she posts are for liberals

2020-10-16 02:37:26 UTC  

In my town I see like 20 campaign signs directly outside the voting station

2020-10-16 02:37:37 UTC  

I'm so glad I have a normal Govt class... Lmao

2020-10-16 02:37:39 UTC  

I can also just attend town meeting zooms but thats boring

2020-10-16 02:37:53 UTC  

@Bear if you absolutely CANNOT, yes,

2020-10-16 02:38:02 UTC  

you couldnt do an absentee ballot instead

2020-10-16 02:38:06 UTC  

absentees are generally safer

2020-10-16 02:38:27 UTC  

Dude my govt teacher is surprisingly unbiased, I got hella lucky

2020-10-16 02:38:30 UTC  

It doesn't take much organizing. Bring a table, chair, and a Trump or Republican or whatever campaign sign you're most interested in.

2020-10-16 02:38:57 UTC  

Pick an appropriate sidewalk or plaza, and chill for a Saturday.

2020-10-16 02:39:04 UTC  

lol

2020-10-16 02:39:08 UTC  

Have some people there to protect you if stuff goes south as well

2020-10-16 02:39:14 UTC  

yea, my town has a "harbor" with tons of foot traffic and shops

2020-10-16 02:39:21 UTC  

im thinking of setting up something

2020-10-16 02:39:24 UTC  

fun and easy way to get hours

2020-10-16 02:39:29 UTC  

but more importantly; it actually does something long term

2020-10-16 02:39:47 UTC  

promoting these discussions promotes real change; a single politician doesnt really

2020-10-16 02:39:59 UTC  

Agreed

2020-10-16 02:39:59 UTC  

there are issues that politics cant solve or wont.

2020-10-16 02:40:24 UTC  

wrong channel oops

2020-10-16 02:40:53 UTC  

ooh, if attending meetings works, watch a county commissioner meeting. Get a better understanding of the responsibilities of your local government. The separation of powers into the local-state-federal levels is just as important as the separation into legislative-executive-judicial.

2020-10-16 02:40:57 UTC  

@Bear oh yea

2020-10-16 02:41:01 UTC  

safer then mail in

2020-10-16 02:41:05 UTC  

but idk really, how do we know

2020-10-16 02:41:12 UTC  

for all we know the poll workers are throwing out trump votes just like the mail in people

2020-10-16 02:41:22 UTC  

its just the polls have less steps, and less people

2020-10-16 02:41:56 UTC  

@Bear I really do suggest intentionally making time to vote in person. I'm doing it that way because I don't trust any other way of getting my vote in

2020-10-16 02:41:58 UTC  

People like to talk about how we need government to build roads. The municipal and county levels are where most of that happens.

2020-10-16 02:42:18 UTC  

ye

2020-10-16 02:42:24 UTC  

im worried
