Americaâs system of counting in mail in ballot votes is garbage, and is already gonna put a strain on the system, which Trump is counting on that system to illegitimately secure a second term. If youâre not gonna take this election seriously, then do it in the least harmful way possible by not requesuting/sending in a ballot, or staying at home. I wasnât being serious about the write in. I havenât decided what Iâll do yet, but I will be voting. If I canât decide I will leave the sections blank. Iâm not going to vote for Trump, but I also am not sure I want to vote for Biden either. she/her/hers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HorusRa2 5,005 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Im voting for Biden but he aint getting any of my money or time. The only reason im voting for him is because im tired of fighting liberals who seem to think Biden is so different from Trump. Hes not and the dems are going to do more of the same when they are in power. They just wont announce it to the world like Trump and his croonies do. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither presidential candidate seems super promising to me. And I was fine with our governor until he said K-5 schools can open at 100% capacity because kids arenât at risk.  I have one candidate I want to win our state superintendent position because sheâs actually been in education. So if anyone is in NC, Iâd like to recommend a candidate. NC is a swing state, please consider Biden if only to stop Trump Your governor can leave though Whimsical bitch Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latter hope is bound to happen as more and more young voters and leaders join, I just hope it's by 2024 that real progressive moves are made.

I suggest you should research who you can vote into the Senate and the House, and even more as those candidates are usually more appealing. The only reason Trump wasnât able to build his wall, was because of those sane people in lessor government positions.

Franch Toast 27,745 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 Yes, I'm voting. I've already requested a mail-in ballot, which I'll be dropping off in person at my township hall (or whatever it's called) â they have a drop-off box outside. I also persuaded my 71-year-old stepfather, who's never voted in his life, to register to vote! She/Her/Hers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaLa 19,898 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 I'm wishing y'all good luck  American politics contributes massively to my anxiety, so I'll be popping a 911 that night and deep breathing. As a Canadian I'll also say that your voter registration sounds like some bullshit... I can't believe some of the stories I hear! I like to work the polling stations here during elections of all levels as a kind of civic duty, and the thing most beaten into us during training is to do whatever it takes basically to let someone vote. They can register on the spot, change address, name, whatever. The "ID" we accept is... basically any damn thing. Have an expired student card and a bill on your phone? Step right up! I've helped homeless people figure out what they need to vote. So when I see some of the hurdles Americans need to jump to vote, it's really crazy and upsetting to me. Good luck again everyone Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
