SC rolled out new voting machines this year so today when I went to cast my uncontested single-race ballot for mayor there was only one machine for the entire precinct. OTOH they'd been open for 3 hours and I was voter #5 so

The more I learn about history the more I learn that none of this poo poo is new, we're just facing a huge cliff of end-stage capitalism and climate change this time. I really think from an evolutionary perspective we are failing as a species to perpetuate our own survival.

i get that its fundraising but jfc bernie is using it correctly its a weird sentiment i know but why the hell would you not be shoving signs everywhere and anywhere why gate that poo poo to try and scrape up more fundraising screw it blanket the town and show drivers what their neighbors think sorry thats my old man talking from beyond the grave. he didnt make it to the Trump presidency, he loved local politics and bullshitting with everyone about anything. he was head of the local democrats and could talk the paint off a barn. id get emails from him when i was in iraq where he'd be grumbling about local republicans trying some bullshit on budget crap. every election night i'd be at the democrat headquarters. Polls closed at 8:00, a rep from each party would drive a copy of the results to their headquarters by 8:15 and we'd talley up all the machines on a chalkboard. high fives and drinks or a stampede outside for anger smoking cigarette soon followed idk its weird but yeah $3 a sign says a loving lot

According to some of the replies the yard signs are closer to $15 for at cost, but just shows that 1) Bernie's got a huge small donor war chest and 2) he's investing it back into stuff that helps keep the grassroots motivated and get out the word at the community level rather than spending it all on pointless TV ad buys and consultant leeches.

Nostalgia4Butts posted:i get that its fundraising but jfc bernie is using it correctly I expect it's the difference between local and national races. Local stuff, signs are more important to getting your name out there than ads or mailers. For national stuff, I expect the word is gotten out by ads and news, and signs are more for voters to show their support. Local races, you want as many people as possible people to have signs to get your name out, so it's an expense (and a good one) National races, your name's already out there and I guess the idea is that people will pay to show their support to support other parts of the campaign. Sort of like free baseball tickets to get people into the park, but fans will pay for shirts and ballcaps. Still, the idea of charging for signs is weird.

From reading earlier in the week Bevin losing KY isn't quite an indictment about Trump. Apparently dude and his admins were just tremendous assholes to everyone and burned a lot of bridges etc. Don't get me wrong, it's awesome to see a D win in KY and I think Trump weakening might have played a part, but probably a pretty small part compared to Bevin shooting himself in the dick. Do we have any local KY people that know more of the story? Good news all the same, wins a win

you can just chalk it up to Bevin being an absolute shitlord(he is) but if the R beside the name isnt good enough to carry a gigantic rear end in a top hat then the GOP could be in real trouble

it just leaves a rotten taste in my mouth i get the local/national disconnect, but charging anything more than ten bucks for a sheet of stencil spraypainted corrugated plastic at best and a 2 cent wire frame feels vulgar as hell pantslesswithwolves posted:The newest Worst Year Ever (by the same guy who does Behind the Bastards) is about Tulsi Gabbard and it’s basically just excoriating her for being a garbage person.

I get having your lips sewn to the orange rear end in a top hat of the president to get back in and continue your... whatever scam you're trying to pull, but goddamn the walk of shame you've gotta do when you've debased yourself in front of the world and it didn't even work. I'd just call it a day and eat a bullet.

I'm waiting to see how the Mississippi race turns out but it so happens that the Dem running for Governor there is basically just a GOP shitlord in all but his views on state medicare stuff. All of his social stuff is complete bigoted trash just like the rest of his state and constituency so I'm not sure if it really would even count as a 'win'. Mississippi delenda est.
