I hope US people understand that sometimes you need to vote against someone, not select best candidate. Learn from examples of Turkey&Russia

I have equal dislike for Trump and Hillary, and my vote is going to reflect that, because that's what it's for. End of story.

If you actually live in a swing state... Otherwise your vote won't really matter anyway for the general election.

I've been trying to tell people this. Nobody listens. Easier to blindly hate than think rationally.
TiredOfTheBS
I've found that people outside the imgur hive mind aren't so blinded by their hatred of Hillary. Try elsewhere
RaynSideways
Actually, I've recently had better results on Imgur than elsewhere. Reddit frequently grills me alive for trying.

It's not "they don't have my favourite beer", it's "the only beverage choices are mayonnaise and bleach". Yeah, mayo's probably wiser 1/2
dickable
2/2 but there's something to be said for just going to another goddamn store to get your beer.
biolologist
Going to another store would be going to another country though and doesn't resolve the issue at hand.
dickable
Doesn't it, though? Doesn't it?
TheHappyCanadian
then you drink the mayonnaise and it turns out it lied to you and ended up being horse jizz or worse, Miracle Whip.

Im from Canada and don't fully understand whats happening down there...does a vote HAVE to be cast for Trump/Clinton? Are they the only 2?

You could vote third party, or write somebody in, but the last time we voted in a third party candidate was...maybe 1860 or 1850?

Well its really not if we are talking about the democratic primaries amIright? *rimshot*
equityforpunks
Democracy is equal, free, and fair. Neither of the candidates will fill freedom&fairness. Gongrats US, you are now as democratic as Russia.
Euronyme
Parties ain't part of the democratic process. They're private organizations with whatever rules they like set to bring a candidate they like
Rocalive
If that were true, all state primaries would be held simultaneously. The fact that they aren't speaks to how the people can be swayed,1/2
Rocalive
with no change in the actual information or facts that are provided.
LizardEnterprises
Nah. Americans are stupid and need extra time. Besides, staggered primaries allow long-shot candidates like Bernie and Obama a chance.
platypus1292
Because the democratic process was ruined at every possible moment by the DNC in order to get Hillary the nomination?
LizardEnterprises
2/2 Party leadership is under no obligation to be neutral, and individuals within the party are free to express an opinion, as individuals.
WilliamJeffersonCosby
Yes, voting against the corruption of democracy itself is perfectly legitimate.
LizardEnterprises
1/2 Bullshit. Democracy is allowing people to vote, counting the votes, and considering them binding. That happened.
AangTheLastAirbender
The democratic process was ruined by both parties a long time ago
Slashinhobo
People seem to think she was the 1st to rig something. In this day in age you just see it more often thanks to tech and better mass comm.

the difference now is that there are emails to tell us how corrupt it is. The DNC always threw their weight behind the establishment candida

idislikecomingupwithuniqueusernames
Except that she had around like 3.8 million more votes than him. I would have preferred Bernie, but there's no getting around that.
MrCheezypoofs
Yeah, but people believe a lot of that was swayed by unequal treatment. Plus, the outcome doesn't validate how they got there.
idislikecomingupwithuniqueusernames
4) (i.e. an election in which Trump is a possible choice)
BluBoxx
The parties (DNC and RNC) are private organizations. They have no obligation to treat non-party members the same as their own...
idislikecomingupwithuniqueusernames
2) My contention isn't that we should ignore crappy behavior, it's that it likely didn't sway things enough to matter. We need to deal with
idislikecomingupwithuniqueusernames
1) I don't disagree, but Hillary has been beating him in the polls since the beginning. It's pretty impressive he did as well as he did.
idislikecomingupwithuniqueusernames
3) the crappy behavior, but not by burning everything to the ground in a fit of rage. AND we still need to deal with what's in front of us.
BoopityBap
Seems about right. I'd rather drink bleach than vote for Hillary.

Please do.
JoshuaMcarthur
GOP did it to themselves. They changed the rules, now sleep in it. I'm with her.

You completely butchered that saying.
idislikecomingupwithuniqueusernames
GOP is a moniker used by the Republican party ;)
foxhoundunit89
Who the fuck says they're voting for Trump before Hillary just because Bernie didn't win nom? Absolutely goddamn no one, that's who.
FicklePickle13
Plenty of people in this comment section, actually.
foxhoundunit89
No wonder we're fucked.
FicklePickle13
I doubt most of them are actually going to vote, though. Or have EVER voted, even if they've been able to for quite a while. Or I hope.
rcopeland87
You wanna affect real change, vote for your reps and senators. Vote for your mayors and city council. Vote for your governor and legislature
NationalistCanadianMooseWarrior
Tl;dr: stop whining and fuckin vote
SuperCleverUserName
Having Bernie running in the general would have gotten a lot of progressive voters actually get out to vote and may have swung other races
DrArbitrary
I agree, that's why I voted for him. But that ship has sailed. Bernie started as a mayor. You could be helping a proto-Bernie.
AManWoman
Thanks, Obama
MithridateEupator
Ok but imagine for a second that I care more about the lives of thousands of syrian refugees than my local building permit laws

Your local candidates know the higher up candidates. This stuff works its way up, and helping sympathetic people at the bottom will help.
stevetehpirate
Why don't more people understand this?! I tell them the presidential race is dead to me, and they think that I'm not voting.
stevetehpirate
No! I'm just voting on the things that matter.
noctynight
It's too bad the media doesn't pay any attention to these.
iTzAwesomesauce
The only problem is that for smaller elections, it's harder to find out anything about the candidates.
Druku
Right? No campaigning. And all we get is the online voter "guides"
DrArbitrary
For local stuff, you can probably call them up in person, or at least get a response on Facebook. Let me know if you want to know more.
justasuggesture
I spent a good portion of Tuesday looking up every candidate on my ballot.
rcopeland87
That can be an issue. But at smaller cities getting out to town hall meetings & talking directly to mayoral and council electees can happen
iwouldwalkfivehundredmiles
That's false. We have the Internet these days. Even small town council candidates can have a Facebook page many times.
iTzAwesomesauce
You're just lucky I guess. I remember trying to look up the candidates on my ballot recently and I could barely come up with anything
DrArbitrary
You're in an area that's ripe for takeover then! Ever think of running?

Right, but the English language us a tricky bugger. Effect change is the correct usage http://grammarist.com/usage/affect-effect/

As a guy who volunteers a ton in small govt stuff, thank you. Bernie didn't start as a presidential candidate, he started as a mayor.

Tge Supreme Court affects real change as well. Clinton will be hamstrung by a GOP House, but the SCOTUS can flip for 1st time in 30 years.

He was not impeached. He resigned. Bill Clinton and Andrew Johnson are the only presidents to be impeached.

rcopeland87
People always get spun up for presidential elections but don't put forth this much energy when it comes to the other echelons of government.
Ssssssssssss
I actually enjoy those elections more since most of them come around more often. Not as much waiting.
MostOfImgurGenerallyPissesMeOff
as usual, its the fault of the media, misleading millions and making the presidential election to be the most important thing for everyone.
justannoying
I Think this is mostly due to media coverage. Presidential elections are overly covered compared to gov related elections.
equityforpunks
President has a huge effect of international relationships though. Trump seems to be pro-Putin... which frankly is the scariest part of him.
justannoying
Also Trumps complete incompetency for the job, and dishonest ignorance to facts is also pretty scary.
rcopeland87
Very true. the average American cares about what's going to help their daily life. state/local government and fed representation is crucial
werekoala
Yeah but you're 1 opinion in 300 million. Good luck moving that needle. Meanwhile, the people who decide water purity, road quality, 1/2

and school curriculum often win office with less than a thousand votes. You really can make a difference on that level. You just don't 2/3

Have partisan news sources getting you all riled up about how the other side is in league with the devil. Start local, you'll be surprised

There's two Supreme Court slots open. I'm sorry, but I don't want Trump appointing that.

These are people who are well connected at the local level. If there are monthly meetings, they'll know about them. Those are a great (1/2)

Place to meet local candidates in person and talk to them a bit. (2/2) Let me know if you need more help.

I too am a Texan. I try and read the minutes from San Antonio's town hall meetings and read the local news as much as possible.

As someone who is huge on gotv, I disagree. Everyone has the right to complain, but if you care enough to complain you really ought to vote.
