I find this entertaining. It's not about the big election, but a smaller one.
It's not me, it's someone else.

They blockaded the road. In Portland that's called a peaceful protest.

But it's Texas.
An absentee ballot mailed to an address in New York City was not pre-marked, according to the New York City Board of Elections. An absentee New York voter who mailed the ballot from California put it in the wrong envelope so that it was sent back to their previously listed address in Queens, NY, the AP reports. A video of the absentee ballot circulated online sparking false claims that the ballot arrived pre-marked. There has been no evidence that voters in New York have received pre-marked ballots, according to election officials.
Ahh... misinformation yay!

I'm not sure who this is insulting, but it's insulting SOMEONE, and that's good enough for me.

I thought it was designed to make people vote third party.

Here's another take on your link: "Entrenched parties flood social media with accusations of racism in order to discourage third-party votes and defend their positions of power."

Totally unrelated, but Biden is polling lower than any other D presidential candidate in history among African Americans, and CNN just ran a front page story about how he's struggling with Latino voters.

I just read about a Vegas odds maker unofficially predicting a huge Trump landslide, but didn't want to appear brainwashed.

AGAIN... I don't care. I don't think any way about people who vote one way or another.... but I reserve the right to observe signs of bias.

I don't have any emotions invested in politics.

Only one side engages in edgy and cool memes. It's disgusting.

Stop saying "I don't care" over and over and expecting anyone to believe it. You voted. I don't get why you keep saying it.

I legit always read that as POS, and it would be appropriate.

He's doing as well as Hillary did. That's not being snarky, just stating that he's way ahead in all the polls and is expected to win. However, would anyone here truly be shocked if Trump wins?

Nothing would shock me at this point.

Well, nothing except a JoJo victory, but I've voting for her anyway.
