It’s the tv ads that started before the primaries that are driving me nutx. Now almost every ad is hateful fearmongering. Hopefully most are backfiring on the nasty and desparate.
Election Day, not election month. I realize that fewer people had the right to vote at that time but they still had only one day. Today with faster travel and information we appear to need a month or more to cast our ballots.
I don’t understand why you don’t change that date to a mandatory Sunday, when many people are not working instead of any day in the week. Shouldn’t it make things easier?
“They don’t want you to vote. If they did, we wouldn’t vote on a Tuesday in November. You ever throw a party on a Tuesday? No. Because nobody would come.” – Chris Rock
I look forward to campaigning. Here, in Tennessee, the governor, very likely to win, is, nonetheless, looking slightly scared—and pandering to his base.
It’s times like these I turn to the Classic Arts Showcase when I just have to have some televised entertainment but want to avoid the horrible campaign ads. I admit I do mute a lot of the opera!
I don’t watch normal TV, so I don’t see those ads. I use a VPN set to Switzerland, so I almost never see campaign ads online. All I’m left with are the negative ads that come in the mail. The only downside is I don’t have an easy way to connect my TV set top box to a VPN, so I generally avoid watching online video on my TV during election season.
It cracks me up to see people screaming they can’t get transportation to voting booths or have time to vote. Send them a check and they will be at walmart or the liquour store in less than an hour.
Actually, it’s the Tuesday after the first Monday. That way voters wouldn’t have to travel to the polls on All Saints’ Day. Not that any particular religion is legally favored in the U.S.
The system is rigged and your vote is useless so just relax and bend over and wait to get screwed like we always do. Politicians don’t give a s*** about anyone but themselves.
I do not give a bilge rats @$$ about the uniparty that controls the USA. They both claim to be mortal enemies when the cameras are on but when they are off, the supposed enemies not only talk with each other but go to dinner, bbqs, boating, weddings, etc as best friends. It’s like WWE ‘wrestling’ except the losers are the voters.

The campaigns have bought so much time that there is no time available for used car dealers, or ambulance chasing lawyers.

Mail in voter for years. Study the ballot and take my time. The voting booth can feel so pressurised.
