Most of the time, you might be right. In times like this, it is very wrong.
But no matter what, it’s important to go vote. Vote no matter how you think your state will go. Maybe you’ll be disappointed most of the time, but every once in a while, you might be pleasantly surprised.
Mississippi was never in play. It was a safe Republican state. Democrats didn’t spend money in Mississippi. The wins in Kansas, Iowa, and Texas were already major upsets. Alaska, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Florida going down as election night battlegrounds are events that will find their way into the pages of history books. People will study this election cycle for decades.
Your vote matters.

People underestimate the importance of winning by a large margin. Every extra vote widens the gap and tells the losers what they are doing sucks and to change or fuck off.
Win by a small amount and they see opportunities to cast doubt and claim its a lie.
Win by big numbers and… they might still claim it was stolen, but the mostly normal people don’t buy into that. People feel more empowered and expect their politicians to do what they said they would do.
Notice how Trump isn’t talking about a stolen election.
The vote margin is so big this time around even Trump doesn’t want to use the bullshit excuse.
I think every now and then trump decides to listen to advice once he’s heard it 1000 times. I’m guessing he was too stupid to realize he shouldn’t reuse this ridiculous lie again, but rather a chorus of advisors have pleaded with him for months not to. Maybe the last straw was how wide the gap is, but I say never underestimate the depths of his idiocy.
Vote even if you only care about local elections! You WILL see results from that.
State and local elections are even more important than federal elections. Not only is your voice louder, but the more local an election is, the more likely it is to impact your day to day life.
“I live in a red state and don’t vote / vote 3rd party”…
This was my last time voting in Texas after 26 years. Next up I will be voting in Wyoming where my countyis the only blue dot in a sea of red. Just like it was when I moved to Texas. maybe I’ll see one more flip before I kick the bucket.
Congratulations on your move to Wyoming! If money were no object, NW Wyoming is one of the Top 5 places I want to retire lol
Just like how I hope to see Oklahoma flip in my lifetime, I hope you get what you want, too.
I bought in Teton county before COVID-19 hit. No way I could afford it now. Absolutely beautiful place full of good people and a great community. There’s a reason why billionaires come here to disconnect and hide.
Will the new Democrat majority force an end to the Iran conflict? Will they stop approving arms and cash to Israel?
