plspls_pls_ stop calling each other fascists or astroturfers unless you have a thorough understanding of the uncommitted movement and what u.s. primaries are. there is so much blatant misunderstanding and misinfo going on it’s bad.
edit: if any loser dares call for an uncommitted vote in the general election? i will kick them in the balls (gender neutral) (in minecraft)
US elections are an unusually long process. They normally take about a year of actual voting because of the primaries.
And nothing good can happen during these primaries?
If you’re going to cast a protest vote during the presidential election, the primaries is the time to do it. You’re only voting for the presidential candidate that will represent your political party, so there’s less risk of getting someone you won’t like.
I don’t know if it’s official yet, but Donald Trump will almost certainly be the Republican nominee for the election this November. The same can be said for Biden as the Democratic Nominee, as I don’t know if an incumbent president has ever lost their party’s nomination. So while we will nearly certainly have to pick between an old man with bombs and an old man with bombs who wants to tear down the government and rebuild it with himself at the helm, you can still show your disapproval at the ballots.
Trying to proofread this and it sounds like a fucking Trainwreck. I don’t know if that’s my fault or the government’s.
