posted by majorsparkDon't listen to the ads or what anyone else says. Read the wording on the ballot. They are hiding nothing in the wording. Its quite clear the intent. You will know what to do.
The wording on the ballot is unbelievable. How it was allowed beyond me.
Trump: "Whether the women like it or not, I'm going to protect them from the migrants coming in"
Harris: Instant abortion rhetoric, framing Trump's "like it or not" as him controlling reproductive rights.
This is what happens when you have no policy to stand on, you cling to abortion while WW3 starts all around you.
Not that anyone here cares, but I have zero respect for anyone who votes for this woman and the monolithic machine that has supported her (but only for 4 months). You are a literal useful idiot by definition.

Those dastardly Republicans are at it again. Two appointees from the majority and two from the minority. The tie breaking vote is up for state wide reelection every four years and is term limited.
What is our recourse if we don't like how the "citizens" commission draws its lines?

To create an appointed redistricting commission not elected by or subject to removal by the voters of the state
Reading just this one point was enough to tell me how I was going to vote.

People voting for her are choosing that route for no other reason than they don't like Trump. Has nothing to do with what she can do for the country. Ask someone what this administration has done good in the past 4 years and you hear crickets.
They ask her what her policies will be and she clams up. This "no answer" tells me her plans are to stick with what she's done in the past, tax the shit out of people, open the floodgates (borders) and give those "migrants" instant citizenship (more Dem votes), make the taxpayers pay for gender altering surgeries and go after the citizens guns, hardcore.
As far as your comments about WW3, the Biden/Harris group is so inept I could see an enemy country firing a nuke and their response being "let's just see where it lands and the damage it does before retaliating." They're THAT soft.

And they have all been superb examples!
I remember hearing Dr. Phil talking about DEI during the MSG rally. I thought that was kind of funny, since the only reason anyone has ever heard of Dr. Phil is because Oprah gave him an outlet, which essentially makes him a White Boy DEI hire, so he was ripping on himself. I mean, I doubt he realized he was because I'm sure he feels he truly "earned" his status as made-for-TV shrink and stuff like having a TV show and getting to speak at rallies is his well-deserved reward, but it's true.

So a Dem who is trans has threatened to kill Trump in Pennsylvania. Been arrested.

Will be ignored in favor of the "Trump wants them to shoot Liz Cheney" nonsense.
Honestly, I cannot believe people are that stupid.

If we had a real media, they’d all be concerned with the last 2 years of Trans violence, including school shootings. But we don’t. They’d rather these mentally ill fuck wads wander around and possibly teach your children.

Common sense was thrown out the window a long time ago and the media/Libs are the driving force behind it.
You would think with all the work done to make Trump a convicted felon this would be used in the last days to bring it across the finish line. Instead we got nazis, firing squads, and bad comedians.

That didn't hit like they thought it would.
And of course, they all thought he'd be dead at this point.

The truth is some people love these types of politburos.

Because there is no way to hold them accountable for anything. Can't vote out somebody that was unelected in the first place.

Let’s be honest, no one’s being held accountable now.

This is true. The districts are illegal and gerrymandered to fuck and back. They have been deemed illegal by the Ohio supreme ct. the pubey cons have made 5 or more attempts and they just cannot bring themselves to ungentrify their territory and comply with the law. The court just holds up its hand and say oh well, we don’t have any body to punish so there is nothing we can do. Kinda like the school funding they said was illegal 30 years ago

I can't disagree. But at the same time I don't trust "independent" bureaucracies either.

At one point the elected legislature was directly accountable. Drawing their own lines. An unelected politburo sounds much better.

Let’s put it this way - by it being in the hands of elected pols, we have one of the most gerrymandered states in the union. Why not try this.

Trumpers call that Ballet Kidnapping. It’s only one rung below Ballet Harvesting on the Crimes Against Humanity ladder.
