Relevant because at the time of posting to statewide senate racebis separated by less than 100 votes.

    Where’s the “YoUr vOtE DoEsN’t cOuNt!!” crowd at?

    Don’t say that too loud. I really don’t want them to show up. I already know that the “election is rigged” crowd is out there waiting and I’m not sure if I have the sanity for it.

      The election was rigged, it was just done incompetently (like everything involving fascists). A lot of this blue wave is due to Republican gerrymandering backfiring because they left themselves too thin of a margin. This election proved that voting is still important even when the election is rigged.

        Gerrymandering is SOP for both parties. No guesses why its one of the only countries where its legal and partisans can draw boundaries.

          No, in this regard both parties are nowhere near the same. They both suck ass but the shenanigans are extremely lopsided. You are gravely misinformed.

          Edit: oh, I forgot you’re a foreign agitator that has also previously spouted off absolute bullshit about how ICE is here to protect people and always follows “standard procedure”. You’re very credible.
