I did the last presidential but not the midterm, some people say vote in local shit since you get candidates who aren't ghouls and while I'm sure that's true somewhere it sure isn't the case for me. I voted psl Gloria La Riva, was initially gonna do green party but thought if I'm doing 3rd party might as well do the one that actually aligns with my beliefs since there's no shot they win anyways. I've moved now so seems kinda pointless to register just to do 3rd party so I won't unless there's a ballot measure worth voting for.

I feel this, my city council and mayoral elections look like this: “Small business tyrant, small business tyrant, small business tyrant, unrepentant fascist, small business tyrant, milquetoast lib, small business tyrant”
