Return of the King

Southerner here. It's this kind of carte blanche thinking that had left the liberals and progressives of the South fighting an uphill battle. When the major party most aligned with our values throws up their hands and withdraws all support, we are left only with our metropolitan counties trying to lead by example, however flawed we may be. I want to help my rural statesmen get the help they need so that they're above water long enough to realize the true opponent, the 1% aka the new age plantation owners. But when we only have 2-3 counties per state trying to stem the tide while weathering the onerous rulings of a gerrymandered state legislator, it's slow going. I almost left once, but that's accepting defeat. I'm not leaving this country if we take a significant rightward turn, because I'll lose any ability to right the ship. Same goes for the South.

From a Blueberry in a Raspberry pie, with love.

Fair. I didn't want its dated take to be taken as the current take.

No it doesn't, and the forecast is about how the race stands if the election were held today with no future developments or changes. It's basically a coin flip at the moment, and the swing states are split.

You have to take into account the electoral college advantage that Republicans have. It's not enough to just win the popular vote. So, don't forget to vote at all levels when you can. :)

I thought this was a Dune post, at first.

Interesting! Do you see more builds being built at the higher cap, thus attributing to the housing crisis? Thank you for taking my question seriously.

@[email protected]'s idea of having a portion be mandated for Minimum Wage rent has some teeth.
