Election 2018
« on: November 07, 2018, 08:25:40 AM »
I'm happy.  We have a new governor and I can't really stand the old ones..he's too extreme like someone at the White House.

I think a lot of people did. Especially people who aren't register to vote(Me). Not because I can't. I just choose not to. Vote red, vote blue...blah blah :P

I think "biased" might have something to do w/ it, especially in the Hmong community.  She's pretty outspoken for women issues and this might be a "turn off" for some people, i'm thinking.

Man, some of you guys are so cynical, ambivalent, indifferent,,, or is it just ignorance? You may think all parties are corrupt, etc, so your vote, your voice is a drop in the bucket, and practically does nothing,,, but think of it this way,,, if two choices are bad, well, there’s one that is the lesser evil of the two. So you should be politically motivated, educated, and participate.
