My "vacation" is a euphemism for war tourism in Ukraine for some "bloody work" to escape my boring techie job and family.

Ask me about my warcrimes.

Come at me scrub-lord I'm ripped!
Took my first person to the polls today in Lyft is a 70 year old guy who moved here from Russia almost 40 years ago loves the country and is voting Democrat as hell and thinks Trump is the biggest load of poo poo on this planet of Earth gives me a little hope for the future I actually don't expect to have a ton of rides like this today just because we do a lot of absentee balloting in Colorado and most people have already probably voted but there's still a good amount of people we will do it in person today

I know a fair amount of olds who vote Democrat but then again I live in a pretty blue area of Colorado so who knows

it's always interesting to me to hear people say how much they love this country and think it's the best in the world and what's funny is a lot of them immigrated here because often times I hear especially on these forums a bunch of people poo poo on the country and justifiably so but from an outsider's perspective there still a lot of appeal

I'm in Minnesota and our voter turnout is a nonpartisan point of pride. It leads to some interesting results because a lot of people vote but aren't politically engaged at all, so you get Amy Klobuchar winning reelection in 2012 65-30 despite Obama going 52-44, or my DFL Rep in CD1 Tim Walz winning reelection despite Trump winning CD1 by 14 points.

ah also both those states are over 85% white which is why there's no broad suppression efforts. still pretty fuckin tite that so many people vote when they don't have to, rather than the south where a lot of people just can't.

It's not for lack of trying. The Republicans in Minnesota absolutely run on and promise to do voter suppression, but the DFL has so far fought it off.

Yeah, it's entirely possible that we will all go to sleep / pass out not knowing who controls the House because California has some really close races and they're gonna not officially report for potentially days because of absentee ballots.
