US Midterm Elections Megathread III: Hitting The Wall

[Mardla]

I got 55 percent of democratic views and 55 percent Republican. I agreed with repubs on social issues mostly, but dems on the things that really matter: healthcare, economy, taxes (on the rich and businesses), and welfare.

For me, the US two-party system is a bit irrational. It increases polarization and bars people from having more nuanced views. The alt-right republicans should get their own party, the moderates on both sides also should have their own parties, same with Occupy Democrats. And the libertarians

The parties in the U.S. are more coalitions than parties in the Continental sense

[Mardla]

You better be kidding there, guy.

I never got my mail ballot and can't get to my registered location to get to a poll.

Plz no bullying ;-;

Muahahaha, our strategy is working just as foreseen!

[San Lumen]

I do know Lyft and Uber are giving discounted rides to polls. I have a lot of buddies utilizing that method.

I don't support either service and I'm a mild agoraphobic. Being in a car with a stranger just sounds terrifying.

You can't get anyone to drive you or take public transit?

[Valrifell]

Hard for me to choose, but I got Democrats on ISideWith.com. Think I am going Independent.

Independent is actually a far right party, it doesn't mean non partisan. Lmao, their rolls are filled with people who don't know that.

This is literally wrong.

The party is the American Independent Party which is different from the Independent political affiliation that Sanders and most people are registered under.

Nop.

I dont mean to be rude but i find that hard to believe unless your in a very rural county.

Why wouldn't you take a Uber or Lyft if its free? I don't understand what you mean by not supporting it.

Solution:

-Build a time machine
-Go to the future
-Get a teleportation device
-Return to the present
-Use the teleportation device to reach the polls
-Get "I Voted" sticker to rub in everyone's face
-???
-Go to the past and kill robot Hitler (don't ask)
-Profit

Probably doesn't like their business practices, presumably related to how they treat their workers. And he already mentioned mild agoraphobia, so getting in a stranger's car would be a hard sell even if he liked the companies.

And public transportation with a lot of strangers would be non-starter.

That would depend on how crowded it would be.

But I'm not the topic of this thread, even though I am my favorite subject we should get back on track.

Here's what to do if you're turned away at the polls

I'm not sure about this. This seems like more fear mongering than fact. I havnt heard of anyone being turned away that registered and have a photo ID except in a couple states where the secretary of state was an arse

In New York ID is only required for first time voters and it doesnt have to be a photo id.

Tennessee requires a photo I'd everytime. Fine with me, tho they should make state iDs free so theres no poll tax issue.

I'm not sure it's fear mongering. My wife was about turned away from the polls when she first moved back to the US, because she has a notable accent.

If it weren't for the progressively getting angrier white guy standing behind her, they might have illegally denied her the right to vote.

Hasn't happened after the first time though.

Understandable mistake, Nana's a cat after all.

That seems unreasonable. An accent?!

Accents are unAmerican.

Hm... yes... I agree.

I would have no issue with photo IDs if there were provided for free when you register like what they do in Canada.

Better yet, give them out to every citizen when they turn 18 and have them be replaced for freee!

I would have no issue with that either. Every state ought to pass automatic voter registration.

No it’s called the American Independent Party or the Independent Party of America. Just saying I’m independent is not apart of a political party

What if someone doesn't want to register?

If you can't write your letters, there are people who can assist.
