Am I wrong for not voting?

[JahFocus CS]

Silence yourself brehs

Think that the Presidency is the full extent of politics in America brehs

 

[Marco Andretti]

I write in my own name for presidential. .


But hell ! atleast vote yes to legalize Mary

 

[King Poetic]

if u live in ohio, PA, florida, michigan and north carolina which are swing type states u should vote

i live in cali so it's always going to be 70% democrat regardless even if my vote is green party

u live in the south it's pointless cause that's totally republican

 

[the artist known az]

yeah, i do

the states award all their electoral college votes to the candidate who won. so if you want to vote red in a guaranteed blue state, or blue in a guaranteed red state, your vote does not matter

It's still based on the popular vote in each individual state. Living in a red or blue state doesn't guarantee means that party will win

 

[dora_da_destroyer]

Local voting still matters

I voted no on everything that casually wanted to just add more and more property taxes. fukk that, y'all better find money somewhere else

 

[BodeineBrazy]

yo how do people fall for this vote shyt every 4 years. r people that dumb?

im really realizing how dumb the average person is.

 

[|r|e|a|d|]

This is why I vote. Im independent and I think both parties are full of f'n shyt. But i vote because they spend all this time doing their damnedest to make sure we dont. I vote because this breh here voted and them cacs killed him for it. I cant stand Hil or Drumph, but i voted for school board members because i care bout my kids even tho they in a priv school. I voted for judges because there is 1 that disproportionally sentences brehs. I vioted for senate because a pol i actually phucks with retired and 1 of the candidates was poppin big shyt after B'more and Furgeson. There are referendums out there i voted for and against. You gotta be a part of the solution. Shyt dont stop with voting either, show up at them community meetings, and school board meetings, and police meetings. Be active

thanks for the lesson

in the real world, you can assume that at least half of states are gonna swing one way, easily. so people are discouraged, and at the end of the day, every losing vote is literally thrown in the trash

the nationwide presidential election needs to be popular

everyone has media. everyone can hear the candidates' messages. let states vote for their governors, etc

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

Theres probably other stuff on the ballot that affects you more directly than the president and you gave up your chance to have any say in it

Exactly, people are out here parading their ignorance like it's a badge of courage.

 

[Zero]

Presidential....no, but you should at least for your local measures.

This.

• i think a lot of people misunderstand what to expect from democrats and their philosophy

they seem to think the democrats are similar to other 1st world countries left wing when really they are not even close

the democrats philosophy is that its the governments role to ensure economic growth and to create an enviornment that maximizes the chances of prosperity for its citizens

which means theyll regulate corporations but only enough so that they dont restrict them

theyll subsidize an industry like crazy where other countries just turn them public, like health care or access to housing because subsidizing helps the citizen as well as the corporation, win/win for the democrat

they only provide economic relief to the lowest, impoverished underclass because those people arent doing shyt for the economy, theyre just fighting for survival and the economy needs consumers for wealth to flow

which means lower middle class and now middle class families are purposely ignored

Democrats balance the needs of the individual and the needs of the corporations, never doing something that would effect either too much.

if you want Democrats to be what Bernie stands for, you're in the wrong Country honestly. America is a capitalist nation, always has been.


Republicans are basically a cult that worships Reagan and ignores reality. They are so right wing they're basically extremists

Thank you for saying this. Alot of people believe Democrats are or should be socialists.

theres a reason why the civil rights bill originally included voting but had to be taken out so the bill would even have a chance at passing.

voting is that important, they were willing to end segregation itself before theyd let us vote

pisses me off how to this day it goes on, they were bragging in NC about successfully suppressing the black voters.

idk why people expect the president to have any direct involvement in their personal lives either.
