What's getting lost in all the handwringing, when it should be even clearer, is the importance of every single race,
all
the
way
down
the
ballot
!!
@t_heislen Right now, we're in a situation where if we screw around, Trump wins, and there ain't gonna be no more elections. Vote Blue. Vote Biden.
If I can suck it up and vote Blue to keep our democracy, so can anyone.
But if we don't stop ignoring where they get their money from, this problem will get worse, not better. It's how we got where we _are_.
@t_heislen I will take this opportunity to once again remind people:
We're having to choose between an awful candidate, and one that folks have trouble getting fully behind, because people vote party and ignore who is pouring money into candidates' pockets.
If, _after_ this election, we vote party line and ignore corruption, we'll be in the same place in 4-8 years, and eventually it'll be someone as bad as Trump vs someone worse.
We'll _always_ be voting against worse, instead of for better.
