Why you need to vote, even if Clinton is going to win in a landslide

[Lux Interior]

While I'm sure the election will be called in Clinton's favor as our resident queue spammer's head explodes, you still need to get out and vote for the down-ticket races.

Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) suggested Monday that the Republican party’s months-long refusal to fill a vacant seat on the Supreme Court would extend into the next administration if Hillary Clinton is elected president.

"I promise you that we will be united against any Supreme Court nominee that Hillary Clinton, if she were president, would put up," McCain said on WPHT Philadelphia radio in an interview first flagged by CNN. "I promise you. This is where we need the majority.”

Ah, those strict constitutionalists! They're so cute.

I would sign a petition to impeach both of my Senators if this continues. They are not doing their jobs.

Well, they are strict constitutionalists in that they do not trust the rabble to have direct access to power, just like our founding fathers. They are just waiting for the Will of the People to catch up to what they know ought to be.

I look forward to eight more years of our shrinking SCOTUS.

My congressman took over for her husband when he died 10 years ago. She is running against the 2nd place finisher in the primary where she got over 70% of the vote. The Senate race is between two dems. These are Trumps odds of winning california:


...remind me again why it's important for me to vote?? :-)

No local races, hal? No bond issues or charter amendments or referendums?

Doris Matsui. She succeeded her husband Bob Matsui. He was a wall against the privatization of Social Security. Good guys.

Nothing that I can get myself to care about... I use to be very serious about voting, but after 25 years realized that if I had never voted, not a damned thing would have been different.
