    but if i vote for someone who is bad, and they win, that’s bad.

    dr oz ran against dave mccormick for the primary, and dave lost. fetterman beat oz in the general. all three are in the federal government now. that’s bad.

        what i’m hearing is don’t vote in republican primaries, or democrat primaries, or for them in the general.

          can’t vouch for your location. but I’m me area, there are a few genuinely good progressives running, they refused AIPAC contributions (bare fucking minimum of a politician is to not accept bribes). I trust them. at least I trust them to be less shitty than generic Democrats.

          also, I’m not sure if you are involved and you’re talking from frustration at your primaries. all I’m saying is, that if you can. vote in the primaries, that vote will be much more influential than midterms or even general elections vote

            vote in the primaries

            literally, the worst thing that ever happens when i vote for someone is that they win. i fucking hate politicians.
