Normally not much a chatter but need to vent. I don't even live in a swing state. I'm in as firm a blue state as you can get. Yet my family still feels the need to get mad at me for voting Claudia. As if there's some invisible number you have it hit and then the liberal fairy will give you good boi points.

At least voting PSL eases my conscience a little. If I voted Harris and she still loses I would not only contribute nothing to that result. But then I'd feel shit for voting for the genocide enabler.

That’s the funniest part. I never hear these stories from people in actual swing states. It’s always people in some deep blue or red state doing this.

I’m in an extremely red state and my lib friends are so emotional about me voting PSL. Elections drive people to madness

Yeh this ties directly in to Democrats viewing politics as religion.
