I can't emphasize this enough. If you're registered with the GOP the easiest thing you can possibly do to send a message is change your party registration, even if you plan to never vote again.

How about no, because this isn't Reddit where we silence people we disagree with.

NC bleeds red. I love it here. They tried to cheat here but couldn't manufacture enough votes to erase Trump's lead on election night.

Our Governor and AG are crooks. Somehow Cooper won more votes (2.8 million) than Trump (2.7 million). We also elected Republicans to both houses of the General Assembly, reelected Thom Tillis to the Senate and even elected a Republican Lt. Governor. Cooper is a dirty cheat.

Patton wanted to conscript the defeated Germans and push the Soviets back to their pre-war borders (if not further). He probably would have campaigned for such if he'd made it home but died in a, "freak, low speed," car accident while still in Germany shortly after the war.

That the war ended in Berlin, and not Moscow, is proof that it didn't work, even then.

NC Pede, checking in. Voted in person and no record online. We shall see...

I feel you, pede. Can't believe we re-elected Cooper after all the draconian horse shit he's pulled this year.

This sums up what's going on perfectly. Saving this to reshare with everyone.

I think their polls close late. I seem to recall them always being late to the party on election night.

Yeah, seems a little sketchy...

I've been watching the Tillis race and he has enough momentum I think he's got it. Salty we're gonna be stuck with our little Tyrant governor Cooper, though.

My polling place (NC) just asked my name, with the book lying flat out in front of me, names all easily visible. I could have claimed to be any one of the people on that list. National voter ID may be the single most pressing issue of our time.

There's a huge Coyotes mural (by which I mean graffiti that the Mexican authorities are either too lazy or too scared to clean up) right off the main highway into Tijuana, just south of San Diego. Impossible not to know who and what they are if you've ever bothered to cross the border yourself.

Liberals live in their urban/suburban enclaves and are completely ignorant of the world outside their neighborhood.

"Weapons grade flavor" is my new favorite way to describe these obnoxious double and triple IPAs everyone is making.
