wtf nerd
i dont like free market education lol
seems my ballot didn’t arrive in time anyway though.
lol ripus maximus
so can you still go in?
my fucking retarded university mailroom treated my ballot like a package instead of a letter when it was sent to me, so I got it on the last day you could send it, but because it goes through a university mailroom it takes an extra day.
as long as tom wolf is gone im fine
I don’t think that’s gonna happen.
sadly
😐 🔫
@Deleted User If I had a car and could drive the distance of 7 hours in 3 hours, yes I could vote.
rip me
dickhead thinks he can redraw the district maps
suck my cock tom wolf
The thing is, I hate gerrymandering in the US. But what Wolf's doing is just gerrymandering for the Dems instead of actually fixing anything.
and completely illegally too
my district got changed several times
damn
No mail in ballots? oof
@meratrix vote straight r in contested races, vote libertarian in safe races
@galesteppes I am a principled nigger.
And my principles say that the Democrat party needs to be metaphoricallly bitch slapped lol
yeah, having a 2 party system is fucked in my opinion
see if in the UK, the choices would be Tories or Labour
it's kinda inevitable i think
the UK would be infinitely more fucked than it is currently
thing is American political parties are not a monolith
it's an identifier but not a requirement
I don't doubt that you have more knowledge on the subject than me
like, there's no reason that a member of the Republican Party can vote entirely like the Democrats
I get that
I think that having more than 1 leftwing party and 1 rightwing party, is much better
the problem with a 2 party system is that both party could go too far to either side
the states would need to implement some sort of ranked voting then
otherwise voting for a third party just torpedoes your own ideological base
or MMP
I personally find the system in the UK better in principle
>be ukip
>get 15% of the vote
>get 1% of the seats
Mathematically it isn't tbh
