    Millions of people not voting because it would take millions of people voting to elicit positive change and nobody is doing that is one of the most frustrating things.

      I refuse to be part of that group. I’m a democrat living in KS and I vote in every single election I can. My candidate may not win, but damnit they will count my vote and know that I dissent.

        My candidate may not win, but damnit they will count my vote and know that I dissent.

        Which is the same exact reason I vote third party despite them mostly not winning.

        edit: keep downvoting me. I’m sure that will help convince me to vote for your team, just like the last 50 times it happened.
