Texas has very progressive early voting laws (I know thatās a shock). 10 days of early voting, no reasons needed. Thatās what really pisses me off about low turnout. Even with those liberal guidelines, Alberta Rafael was elected in a special election where the turnout was 12 fucking percent.

12%!!!
That is shameful
People have bledā¦died even for the right to vote.
It should be thought of as sacred duty to vote every chance we get
edit to add
Some AZ elections are write -in but not all

ā¦and they only track the 15 most populous counties. Interesting to see what turnout in the valley was.

Iām in favor of the Australian system - voting is mandatory.

And retire to his dacha on the Black Sea ā Mar-A-Lagoski.
In Nov. 2016 I was the 4th in line to vote at 7 AM when the polling place opened. My wife was 3rd in line. We both had our private cheat sheets because there were lots of things to vote on besides for president. Mrs darrās politics are somewhat to the left of mine tho we commiserate almost daily on the foibles of trump. A lot of my best comments on trump were hers originally.

Oddly I have been doing some reading on Santa Anna. I am seeing a few parallels in the making. When does he suspend the Constitution and submit his own? I realize it will be in stick pictures and crayons, but I can see it.
[Actually, can we Exile a Ā§resident?]

Only the top and bottom bills are legit. The rest are flyers he collected for Las Vegas hookers.
He really does know very little about international trade. He is just talking shit, as he has always done his entire life. He worked his entire life for a company owned entirely by his family, so no one ever told him he was wrong. He has never been accountable to a board of directors or to stockholders. He talks shit and people like Schiller and his so called friends like Scaramucci, Stone, Giuliani, Gingrich, they all say yeah you are so right. Someone high up in the American automobile industry ought to pay him a visit, sit him down and say, āListen Up, Stupidā¦ā

Definition: āvery stable jeniusā ā a monumentally willfully ignorant person who thinks very highly of himself as a defense mechanism against the obvious reality that his intellect is sub-mediocre and his empathic ability is non-existent.
The very stable jenius Trump pisses and moans about China for unfair trade and currency manipulation, and so he instead attacks nations which are our military allies through steel and aluminum tariffs, and then threatens potential further retaliation with tariffs on automobiles from Europe. It is not possible to be more ineffectual towards the goal of employing more Americans and promoting the security and well-being of fellow citizens. Itās almost as if heās taking active measures to reduce economic and political stability along with reduced influence and cooperation with allies. So Iāve got to ask:
Is Trump a Russian Agent?
Or is Trump merely being THE WORLD-WIDE ASSHOLE?
