US 2022 Mid-Term Election

[Tsukasa Kadoya]

I just got back from voting.
I will stop doomposting but I will share one last worrying thing. The machine used for scanning votes was acting up.
Its gonna be a long night lads.

I used to care about the outcome of elections. I don't anymore. I just want to see some coping and seething so that my spirits may be raised.

And yes, I voooooooted.

 

[Happy Fish]

I voted early which means my vote is probably sitting on the side of a road of a mail route somewhere.

 

[Die Dunkle Maus]

I enjoy how the Twitter mob says Elon must be a Republican now, because he wants congress to be red to counteract the President.

I have ROUTINELY voted for the opposing party in midterm elections for many years. Anyone who's read my posts here will never mistake me for a Republican.

But, I must be one, according to "Occupy Democrats" and the rest of Twatter.

 

[Don't Tread on Me]

I did not vote, will not vote, and will complain about the results in all cases because I'm an entitled faggot.

 

[MugolEx]

If this is deliberate I want to see tapes of them making the plan which is literally:
1. Run printers out of toner
2. Pretend not to know what the problem is
3. ?????
4. Profit
Edit: wait, 60 locations.... Yeah that's deliberate. Wonder if it was a firmware thing where it refused to print dark enough... Unlikely because they would have unfucked them all at once... So they ran all 60+ printers out of ink.

I thought these would just be thermal printers.

Have you ever considered a career in politics?

 

[Exterminatus]

I just got back from voting.

After I left the voting location, a cop and a little black girl approached me and asked me how I voted.

I told them I voted Republican, and the cop shot the little black girl.

America is healing

 

[Meat Target]

Oh, for fuck's sake


What a ginormous thundercunt.

 

[Don't Tread on Me]

Vote for me. I will order assassinations on all European world leaders to destroy any sort of Pan Atlantic alliance, so the globalists can never restore it.

If Millennials aren't the pissiest generation now, they'll be suicidally nihilistic by the time they're fifty.

Can I just say how convenient it is that a hurricane is going to hit Florida the day after the election?
Perfect timing for shenanigans.

Perhaps, but I'm not worried about Florida. DeSantis has got it.

CBS went to Florida and were surprised to not find a single Charlie Crist supporter in the wild. They could only find them at Crist rallies.

 

[KiwiFuzz]

True, but the CA GOP is something of a joke even if they have the big member numbers.

I've been saying for a long time that the California democratic party is the most dysfunctional shithole party this side of the Rio Grande.

Every year they win and every year they congratulate themselves on winning, but outside the big cities, it's a clusterfuck. There's no organization, there's no ground game, there's no funding.

Meanwhile, the red corners of the state have and have had some of the most hard right representatives in the congress.

Kevin McCarthy (R-Bakersfield) is about to become the speaker.

The dems reponse? Bakersfield is an armpit, fuck 'em.

 

[Tim the Tranny]

An apology is a good start. Now unfuck this mess.

You know, maybe an apology would be helpful if Maricopa County wasn’t one of the biggest hotspots for shenanigans in the previous election as well. As it stands, anyone involved should (insert fedpost here)

Saw the voter exit interviews at the Times. Mainstream media is sooo desperate to spin this thing.

Phyllis Sheets, 60, headed into the church to vote for the Democratic ticket with one goal: preserving democracy.
“I’m tired of people co-signing foolishness,” she said. “It’s like people are drinking the silly juice around here. Conspiracy theories, not conceding elections, QAnon, January 6. It’s not American.”
Albert Latta, 67, wore a weary look after casting his ballot. The most important issue for him in this election? “Honesty,” he said, adding that he voted for Democrats in the races for governor and Senate.
Mr. Latta said he was so tired of deception by Republicans on election integrity and other issues that he was considering picking up and moving across the state line into Illinois.
“How Wisconsin goes in this election may have a lot to do with that decision,” he said. “I call today’s vote the biggest I.Q. test this country has ever taken.”

Cora Pendergast, 69, a San Diego Democrat visiting her daughter near Sacramento, said that the issues this year extend far beyond the individual races. “Reproductive rights are huge,” she said. Democrats had hoped that similar voter sentiment after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade would lift them over obstacles they face in the midterms, but those hopes faded somewhat in recent weeks as polls showed that economic concerns were more motivating to swing voters.

Look at the hedging at the bottom there. "Faded somewhat." My ass they were never a deal except to Dems.

Also peak clown world if after this election blue votes move to blue states. That's just the most petulant thing to say. "Fuck this state," Futurama style.

But the Times did interview those nasty Republicans....

“I don’t want us to become like California or New York,” said Ixle Mallare, 30, who works in a casino on the Las Vegas Strip and said he picked mostly Republican candidates. “I worry about that. I want to be safe. I want to be able to walk in the streets.”

Abraham Gloria, 40, who works for a plastics manufacturer, said he skipped voting four years ago. But this year, he was determined to support Mr. Michels because he was upset with Mr. Evers. “I just want to get him out,” Mr. Gloria said. “He could have stopped what happened with the riots, and he didn’t.”

Michael Mack, 61, a bartender who considers himself an independent, called the rioting in 2020 “the darkest time this city’s ever had” and said many here held Mr. Evers responsible.

“Politics is personal,” he said. “Evers didn’t act quickly enough to help us.” (The Kenosha County sheriff, David Beth, has defended Mr. Evers, saying that the governor provided all the resources that local officials requested.)

Crime, personal safety, the economy. I'll let you Kiwis decide who sounds like mature adults and who sounds like petulant children

 

[Bork Laser]

I voted. I took a big stinky doodoo in the ballot box.

 

[Jeff_the_Thriller]

I just want to see the right people cry.

That's the main reason I'm going out to vote tonight. The democratic governor candidate aligns closer to me than the republican candidate but I'm voting straight R. Between Musk fucking with Twitter and the red tsunami libshits will be jumping off roofs and setting themselves on fire in the street.
