Absolutely. I think that the best path of action is to let our local politicians know clearly that this is the desire of their constituents, and push hard to vote in candidates that support this. All of these politicians started somewhere, so the best hope for change starts locally and grows from there as word gets out.

That’s a good question. I think we need a massive push towards it, from our local officials all the way to the top. Bernie may get onboard.

I really think ranked choice voting is the answer here. It will open up the opportunity for third parties to actually gain traction.

A friend in the UK called me first thing this morning to check on me. It meant the world. Please do check on your friends in the US, now and regularly. ❤️

Agreed. In the 2016 election I checked myself out of the hospital against my doctor’s advice, donned a mask, and coughed my way through the voting line with pneumonia. There’s no excuse, especially with how easy it is to absentee vote nowadays.

If my eyes weren’t closed.

One time I was at a college party drunk off my ass, and a girl told me to close my eyes. She then proceeded to lick my eyelid aggressively. It was the weirdest feeling I’ve ever experienced. 2/10.

Mark my words: It’s not done until PA completes their recount.
