If we can’t be bothered to vote in the primaries, wjy would anyone believe us that a progressive candidate would somehow lure millions more to vote?
As I know the comments will be, uhhh, fun, I’ve turned off reply notifications.

There aren’t photos on the ballot…
What kind of ballot are you using that is just photos and voices?

It’s an open-book test. You don’t have to memorize anything. Everyone else has this figured out.

You’re giving excuses that make no sense. No one is saying to vote a straight party ticket. Do your research, take notes on the candidates, go vote. Why are you inventing this memorization nonsense?
You’ll find that, while each candidate can have positions that you agree with and that you don’t, but you probably have a pretty good idea which issues matter most to you, so you can focus on those issues. If they say things you agree with about things you care about, and they don’t seem like liars, vote for them. You’ll probably find one party’s platform aligns with your preferences, and you only need to keep track of the ones not in that party if you really want to memorize the candidates. Or, find an organization you agree with and start from their recommendations.
But just bring your notes to vote, if you’re allowed. My state is 100% mail-in voting, so I can fill out the ballot as I research. How many candidates are in your elections that is causing you to panic like this?

They’re on the ballot, that’s not secret information, you literally just have to google it
Okay, I’ve been searching, and found this site…
https://myelectionday.sos.state.ms.us/VoterOutreach/Pages/VOSearch.aspx
“The address you entered cannot be found”
My literal home address. Cannot be found…!?
Yes I’ve checked other sites such as https://vote411.gov/, I get squat, no list of candidates or anything.
Or not. Not Google anyways…
How many candidates? How the fuck am I supposed to know?
I’m from Mississippi, and literally signed up for our Congressman Mike Ezell, he’s literally too busy patting himself on the back to bother with voters opinions…
“I was honored to join Admiral Lunday, the Austal USA team, and our Coast Guard partners in Mobile this week for the keel laying of the USCGC Pickering, the first Heritage-class Offshore Patrol Cutter to be built at Austal. A keel laying is more than a shipyard ceremony — it marks the beginning of a vessel that will help defend our nation, protect our waters, and support Coast Guard missions for decades to come.”
Don’t get me wrong, it’s good to keep the wildlife habitat sustainable, but how the fuck am I supposed to answer how many candidates we have? Beyond Mike Ezell and Tate Reeves, I don’t know who is running for what…
Edit: Mobile is in Alabama, not Mississippi
Apparently Ezell is more for war I guess 🤷
There should be a free voters guide that gets mailed to all registered voters, and is available at the library.
Oh cool, that sounds fun. Ever been to South Mississippi?
Guess not, as our library literally kicked like ~200 people out of the voting line for the 2016 elections…
Well, I don’t know there, friend, do you want to vote for fascists, or do you want to vote for the non-fascists?
Aight, toss me a list of who is running for what office in Mississippi, cuz I’m subscribed to our congressman and still haven’t gotten such a list.
