And so he proved me RIGHT once again. His claim to be a "moderate" is BS.Glad you voted for Kamala, you Anti-American traitor.

We get DEMONstrations of that in this thread every single day.You’re certainly not wrong, but there are an incredible number of low information voters who are easily influenced by leftist propaganda.
No there’s not…not even a little bit. Ending the electoral college will end any semblance of balance and we will turn into a one party state and tyranny of the majority will be the future.I think I’m against it, but am not certain. I read where the candidate with the least votes has only won 4 times, which suggests the EC works, but there are good arguments on both sides of the issue.

The Electoral college sucks. It throws out the votes of thousands of Americans.Electoral college helps small states and he is a 2nd generation governor of a small state. It just shows how the "elite" look down on the voters.
No, there are not "good arguments on both sides".I think I’m against it, but am not certain. I read where the candidate with the least votes has only won 5 times, which suggests the EC works, but there are good arguments on both sides of the issue.

MAGA memes are not the real world. 🤣Back in the real world....
I find it amazing that so many Dims were on the record about the need to secure elections through the use of paper ballots. And then 2020... yet NOT ONE of them have been questioned on it, at least more than a softball question.
Not "those" minorities...It’s odd that lefties who never STFU about minorities are against the electoral college which is supposed to help representation of “the minority.”
I beg your pardon, Sam.MAGA memes are not the real world. 🤣
This piece does a good job of summing up my political make-up, especially the part about being uninterested in politics for most of my life. I am 72, have never been registered as a Democrat or Republican and have only voted twice in my lifetime. 2020 and 2024. My wife is the same way and I know a few others just like us … apolitical, pretty much, until the 2000 election. To my view, I can relate to why there were so many voters in 2000.No, there are not "good arguments on both sides".
The big cities are shitholes and they would be determining the entire direction of the country (more than they do now) and there would be zero reason for the rest of the country to participate. Only idiots that want to destroy the country argue against the EC.
Every single position I've seen you take on here is leftist. Now, I appreciate you like to describe yourself as a moderate ... that you're above the fray (and so much better than us partisans), but you're simply a leftist who doesn't have the courage to admit your true position.
My pool is still open and pump running. Even 10 years ago I would have shut it down because of nights in the 20s by this point in November.
Don't believe me or the scientists.... Go ask a farmer.
The earth is warming period.
The only question now is the extent to which humans are the cause.
Actually, the opposite. The electoral college helps elites by making it possible for minority rule.Electoral college helps small states and he is a 2nd generation governor of a small state. It just shows how the "elite" look down on the voters.
Oh, he’s independent and reasonable but definitely not a leftist. He just has the exact views as a leftist and votes Democrat.No, there are not "good arguments on both sides".

Name 5 policies in which you agree with conservatives and not the left. You said you voted in 2020 and now 2024. How many times have you voted for the Republican candidate for POTUS?This piece does a good job of summing up my political make-up, especially the part about being uninterested in politics for most of my life.

He says he is 72, so I'm going to give him some grace. He may just not realize that he has been duped.Oh, he’s independent and reasonable but definitely not a leftist. He just has the exact views as a leftist and votes Democrat.
I make sure to tell people that just because I have UK hats, sweatshirts, jerseys, shorts, and go to the games does not mean I’m a Kentucky fan. I’m a reasonable impartial fan that has no bias. 😂
You are correct about China and India which is why 97 percent of scientists believe the warming is man made.Talk to China and India. Until they get on board I’m keeping my plastic straws, gas stove, and my “carbon tax”
And to your last sentence, let’s not regress back to the Stone Age until you know that for sure.
97 out of 100 scientists agree with whoever is funding them. How did you not learn this during Covid following “the science?”
Probably takes so long because of the selfies they have to take in the voting booth where they save the world by knowing no other issue but abortion.Got to the Scott County Court House when it opened this morning. Stood in line for an hour to vote.
Far too many women voting for my liking. They really gum up the works (they take FAR too long to vote. It's like watching an old person try and order fast food.)
Yeah.... A cheeseburger was a nickel in the 30s. 🤣I beg your pardon, Sam.
"The median existing-home price will rise to $410,700 in 2025, from a forecast for 2024 of $403,400, and to $420,000 in 2026, Yun said alongside updated NAR projections. The annual 30-year fixed mortgage rate will slide to 5.9% in 2025 but then move higher to 6.1% in 2026."
Median home prices in Q1, 2021 were $355K. Therefore, prices increased $55K since Joe/Kamala regime came into existence.

You sound like the life of the party and a ladies man.....or possibly Archie Bunker.I watched at LEAST 2 dozen women taking the I voted selfie.
When I was offered the sticker, I declined and mumbled something about wasting tax dollars on nonsense.

It can also help fascist redneck movements like MAGA.Actually, the opposite. The electoral college helps elites by making it possible for minority rule.
same here. i noticed lots of women voters, seemingly more than usual, but maybe not. concerning thoughGot to the Scott County Court House when it opened this morning. Stood in line for an hour to vote.

Or ya know...the federal government could enforce federal law. Crazy idea I know.Sure it matters. But the world - meaning the election - isn't perfect. Never has been, never will be. Be as POed as you like. So there are a few here & there as always. What Sam claims doesn't change a thing.
What do you propose doing about it? Shut the election down because of one illegal vote? If not, what?
VH was pissed
"The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt."If you mean that I show up informed, don't waste time with nonsense, and try to keep things moving, because there are a lot of people waiting, then I'm guilty as charged.
I have zero doubt that from ballot in hand, until the scan, that you f*** it up at every possible turn.
