damn
No mail in ballots? oof
I did mail, but my university mail room is retarded.
@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
>be ukip
>get 15% of the vote
>get 1% of the seats
Mathematically it isn't tbh
saw that
has already been linked in here i believe
Google translate oldspeak to newspeak
also in some uk constiutancies, the tories won with 30-40%
meaning that 70-60% of the district didn't even vote for them
Oh ok I'm sorry for reposti
so?
It's not a two party system <:pepe_smug:378719408341909506>
It essentially is one
no u

Polls are Irrelevant
but
The most accurate end model, (put together by a guy on Youtube) was correct in 2016 with Trump winning 304
based on primary turnout
shows the Republicans winning with a 3 seat majority at 219
