Just stop.
Stop pushing the weird bizarre myth that "elections" matter. They don't.
This latest idiocy is from the D brand, but the same idiocy comes just as often from the R brand. Always invoking "civics education" and "civic engagement" to create more idiots.
I suppose there is a connection to "civics education", but not in the way these idiots claim. After you've "voted" several times, you LEARN FROM EXPERIENCE that it's a meaningless ceremony.
You pick the candidates that your team commands you to pick. You watch those candidates after they take office. All politicians serve Deepstate after they're in office. Nothing ever changes. All policies move in the same direction forever.
So you give up on candidates and try marking Yes or No on referendums. After a few times you LEARN FROM EXPERIENCE that the referendums are equally meaningless. When a ref agrees with Deepstate, it is allowed to take effect. When a ref disagrees, it's overturned by the blackrobed demons. Nothing ever changes.
More precisely, nothing ever changes as a result of markings. Sometimes policies do change for internal reasons, but the reasons are never expressed publicly and never correlated with markings.
A good example is the change in forest management that I mentioned yesterday. The governor and other state officials have belonged to the D brand for many years, and the brand proportions in the legislature are also constant. Somebody quietly decided that it wasn't smart to burn half the state every summer, even though most of the burned people were Deplorable Unpersons. Maybe the fires were getting too close to the governor's own properties. I don't know the real reason, but I know that the markings on ballots were NOT the reason.
