Also as an aside: weirdly enough, the house of representatives is already at play (likely to flip if people vote). It’s keeping the senate that’s tougher at the moment but now getting more competitive. This why voting matters even in deep red states as for instance Montana’s senate seats is one of the closest senate races right now
not just the house, but senate too. democrats not only need to take a few seats (or more) from republicans but also keep the ~ 20 they already have (that are up this go-around).
… and state races, and local races. it all matters!
I never understood why they call them “races”. Or why it’s called “Running for (office name)”. I’d LOVE to see trump actually run in a foot race with Harris. can you imagine it? I know she’s probably not in THIS good of shape, but I’m imagining trump bending over and dry heaving after 10 seconds, while Harris is doing cartwheels.
I’ve been saying for 30 years that they should replace presidential debates with a special episode of the 1990s version of American Gladiators.
OMG! Remember the joust??? You had those big Q-Tip looking weapons, and you had to drop your opponent off the platform, and it was like a 30 foot drop. Imagine trump going head to head with a big jacked motherfucker named “THUNDER JAXX”. And then Harris comes out, and has to do the same with some brickhouse bitch named “ICE STORM”.
God…this post is making me remember how much I miss American Gladiators. That show was the best.
Not a bad idea, but they should do anbo-jyutsu instead. Them being blindfolded makes it a good metaphor for politics.
Holy ADHD, Batman! I sincerely hope you make it all the way to the voting booth and finish submitting a ballot without getting sidetracked in a flea market or something on election day! 😂
I like the physical contest idea, though. It’ll keep candidates younger and campaigns much more interesting.
Why? You know a good flea market??? I remember back in the 90s I went to a flea market, and I bought the super scope for SNES, and 4 games for SNES all for $5. Which fun fact about the Super Scope…they repainted one, and gave it to Dennis Hopper to use for his role as King Koopa in the 1993 Super Mario Bros movie. He then came over to our dimension, and used the Super Scope to destroy the twin World Trade Center Towers. Which is kind of weird, knowing what happened in real life after that. It always creeps me out when I watch that movie. Plus, Dennis Hopper is CLEARLY playing the role of King Koopa with inspiration from trump. He’s CLEARLY based on trump, but it gets even weirder, knowing that in real life trump did seek the presidency, and NOW he’s saying things like if he wins, we’re never going to have another election again. That sounds like straight up facist dictatorship shit right there. So I guess it’s weird that we have to vote for Harris to prevent the sci-fi grim reality of the Super Mario Movie from being OUR reality. We already lived through the Back to the Future timeline where a trump became president. See? It all comes full circle in the end if you just keep going…
…now where did I put my corn…
A lot of states allow early in person voting with a lot of open times. I plan to vote in person well beforehand as I like to see it being counted and confirmed.
