Mississippi is just the worst loving place. I've probably spent a grand total of a week of my life in that poo poo state, and I want every minute of it back.

I dunno what Utopic states you Mississippi hating jerks are from but maybe take it easy on the Magnolia state. They're obviously struggling real bad.

Isn’t Virginia one of the states where the democrats were prevented from getting a majority by some flipping to republican?

I hope Virginia gets some real poo poo done this year. If they have time left over, I hope they legalize a weed E: 2019 has damaged me... I'm imagining Gov. Northam finding a way to gently caress this up

Kawasaki Nun posted:I dunno what Utopic states you Mississippi hating jerks are from but maybe take it easy on the Magnolia state. They're obviously struggling real bad. I did an internship where I lived at Shiloh Battlefield in Tennessee and worked in Corinth, Mississippi right across the border. There were a lot of burned out or abandoned houses along my commute. joat mon posted: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. Lawn signs are actually pretty bad for advertisement (It's very easy to ignore them and even if you don't, all you might remember is a name not connected to party or policy). And as a practical concern, they're big and bulky—so not only is it hard to store and distribute them, but they also take up a lot of room that would be better spent on more effective physical advertisements, like mailers and door hangers. The only area where lawn signs really have a place is motivating your own supporters and volunteers. Even if they're highly unlikely to get people interested in your candidate on their own, supporters like having them because it's an easy way to tell people who you're voting for, and it can be encouraging to drive through an area and see tons of lawn signs for your preferred candidate (And, conversely, discouraging when you can see a ton of opposing lawn signs and relatively few of your own). If you want my guess, Sanders' campaign wants their supporters as motivated and active as possible—so if they make lawn signs as cheap as they can possibly provide, it means more people are going to pick them up and dump them everywhere, which in turn makes people think that support for Sanders is higher than they might otherwise believe, which continues to motivate supporters and get them doing other, productive things like knocking on doors or passing out mailers. It's not the strategy I'd pick, but maybe it's working for them? Obviously just the idea of cheap lawn signs is motivating people here, so it's doing some work at least.

Fuckit. Here's where you can see how the Mississippi race goes. https://data.clarionledger.com/mississippi-general-election-results-2019/ Jim Hood's supposed to be a good guy. But so was Ray Mabus. Mabus turned out to be a Stennis wannabe who hollowed out the surface fleet manpower and caused the Fitz and McCain collisions just so he could pump more money to Ingalls Shipyard. Fuckit. I dunno. I just want some good stuff to happen to where I grew up.

That Works posted: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?
