Thank you. I did. I'm glad so many people find that voting is too challenging, or just not worth their effort and time. I love those people for not voting.
Here are some lowlights:
Going into the election, I was so proud to be in this country at this moment, so proud to be voting for Hillary Clinton. I had my Clinton sweatshirt on all day. I was on Twitter telling people that if they didn’t vote they were dead to me...
I like how it's so positive, so patriotic - oh, and DIAF if you don't vote for the worst pres. candidate ever fielded!!
Maybe it had to do with, like, society and all.
I like the way Aaron goes from being cynical about all the political theater that goes on, to only wanting to vote for the "exciting" candidates that offer the most political theater.
There’s a small, outdated website where you can enter your information and check.
Small? What in the actual? Small? Oh, and outdated? Um, do you want it to call you an Uber, to drive you to the polling place?
This must be the sort of idiot that, if she were in a hospital room, would complain that she can't watch Netflix on the TV.
Wow, that last guy is a mess. He seems to think each generation is limited to its own specific form of media-consumption. His parents get to watch the news, so they get in-depth (ha!) information on how to vote. But he can only use social media sites, so "they" need to package the info that way. I guess he's not allowed to watch TV?
Oh, and what is California doing with its registered voters? In Missouri, we get a card in the mail before each election, clearly indicating our polling place, and the date and time the polls are open. And my county just sent us sample ballots.
