i may sound petulant but when the government tells us people that the referendum will be acted upon and it isnt because they cant do their jobs or prepare properly that's what happens. | Yes | 1 |
could one states extreme gerrymandering affect another’s states ability to pursue their own voters interests on the federal level? | Yes | 1 |
actually, he can vote! all the illegals vote for the demoncrates. | Yes | 1 |
you will vote this first. | No | 0 |
it reminds me of when people decried polling after trump's win. poll %'s are not predictors of margins they're predictors of one ultimate outcome or the other. polls ahead of 2016 were about 70% clinton, 30% trump. if the election was run 10 times we would expect clinton to win 7 times and trump to win 3. we happen to inhabit a universe wherein one of the less likely outcomes happened. | Yes | 1 |
this is all fine and good except for 2 things: 1- nothing has changed ot will for the 2020 election as far as the electronic baloots. 2- the dnc still runs the show. if they dont want bernie for a candidate then guess what's going to happen? yeppers--they will not nominate him. thats why bernie has essentially fucked himself with this election. he is flying under the democratic banner instead of independant. their party means their rules people----same as last time and same as next time. why berners dont know this is beyond me. | Yes | 1 |
this is fucking absurd. bernie was leading warren in the polls by a huge margin up until recently. he is one of the frontrunners no one hates bernie. [he’s the most popular second choice of warren supporters]( notice that biden was the most popular second choice for bernie supporters even before biden started running. | Yes | 1 |
besides, they already have the majority. and voting for biden just sends the message that we don't care about economic progress, ensuring that we never get any. | Yes | 1 |
many unionists also immediately went and voted for brexit, despite being warned that would destabilise the uk and directly hand the independence supporters a reason why 2014 could be re-run. now, it was mostly english unionists, 62% of scotland voting remain means there was a decent chunk of yes and no voters working together to oppose brexit, but they warned as well. even now, english brexit voters could change their minds, but apparently labour can't even support rejoining the single market or 'middle england' will go vote tory. | Yes | 1 |
you say "vote blue" and to a longstanding conservative, that's pretty threatening looking and i understand why. i'm voting blue, yes. so don't worry. but i wish i still lived in a democracy. | Yes | 1 |
here take my vote. | No | 0 |
41% of possible eligible voters did not vote. of the total registered, eligible voters, donnie got under 20%, the problem is the large number of people who didn't vote plus quite a lot of vote scattering for write-ins and third party candidates, all of which had a statistically strong showing in 2016. [by design](. | No | 0 |
i see they are already voting. | No | 0 |
there was a poll? | No | 0 |
as it stands, in the u.k. we can’t vote for who we actually want, it’s a wasted vote to choose anyone who doesn’t have a realistic chance of winning their local polls. like many english people not in a major city or former mining district, i live in a safe tory seat. i don’t think anyone but tories have held the seat for about a century. although there are urban areas, farmers (and old people who treat politics like supporting a football team, and vote tory automatically) have a disproportionate sway in the area. no one comes close to beating the tories. my vote counts for nothing. not that i have anyone to vote for. | Yes | 1 |
i still don’t know how she siphons votes from a democrat- seems like her devoted flock aren’t going to vote for anyone else whether she runs or not. | Yes | 1 |
republicans are not afraid of voters. | No | 0 |
i just wanna say that i was a republican for much of my adult life. hhell, still am a registered republican. didn’t even vote for obama (though i was proud of him as a president). but these people in the republican party now are such liars and bigots. please remember that i come from a place where jeff flake and john mccain are from. trump has killed whatever was good in the party and exposed what weak people remain in it—those who serve him instead of their constituents. i must heartily damn this two- party system which forces me to choose red or blue only. i prefer a different color. for the time being, though, i am a solid blue voter, because red is currently the color of evil. (and just in case you wanted to know, this republican voted for hillary! ) i am conservative but anti bigot, pro- immigration, pro- tolerance, pro- peace and fucking clear that climate change is real and that fossil fuels can not be propped up any more.... | No | 0 |
this is so dumb. more people voted for biden than bernie. even if your conspiracy is right, biden is clearly better at political manipulation than bernie is, and that's a good quality for a politician to have. | Yes | 1 |
never vote blue. dems refuse to take even the smallest, easiest actions. | Yes | 1 |
look at the vocal minority of conservative voters. | Yes | 1 |
trump will probably get reelected. | Yes | 1 |
the gop will never defend gun rights, because gun rights being under assault every election gives them better turnout. too many democrat elites have made the working class think that other working class people owning firearms is reprehensible. | Yes | 1 |
i don't think ranked choice would benefit the us election all that much when the winner takes all system stays. because there aren't enough leftist to win many elections ranked choice voting would probably still mean that your vote goes toward liberals. | Yes | 1 |
may all of my american friends and family vote for the best guy named donald j. trump! | Yes | 1 |
your vote will get my vote. | No | 0 |
hey, guess what society decided? they can vote! if you're still against it, go ahead and ask yourself why you hate democracy. | Yes | 1 |
it's entirely his actions that would dictate whether he's on the ballot or not. | Yes | 1 |
mcconnell is deeply shameless and spineless, but he's smart and he's seeing things clearly. he wants to keep trump's voters while someone else gets trump himself out of the way. | Yes | 1 |
i don’t, as a matter of fact. i don’t like biden’s creepy actions or his lack of progress in the wh, i don’t think he was a great choice for the democratic party. however, i also think trump is a lot worse. i didn’t vote, cuz at the time i couldn’t, but if i did, i wouldn’t vote for either of them. | Yes | 1 |
i think a lot of statisticians and pollsters want biden to win just so people who don't understand probability can stop spouting off about how 2016 proves polls and models are fake news but only when opposed the direction of the candidate they personally like. i mean most of the primary was a frightening number of people dismissing biden's polls for 2 years and pretending he would magically implode. | Yes | 1 |
this is a cope, if anything polls seem to be systematically overcounting democratic voters in the past few elections. | Yes | 1 |
thank you, glowinliv, for voting on oddlyspecificbot. | No | 0 |
i love that most of the 'evidence' presented right now has been people's gut feeling that biden is unpopular, therefore him getting a bunch of votes is suspicious. feels over reals, i'll tell ya. | Yes | 1 |
what are some of the reasons not to vote for biden? | Yes | 1 |
i believe you. that’s why i asked, but her vote wasn’t counted so why would it even matter? | No | 0 |
i’m most pissed he didn’t jump all over biden for the”fine people” jab, he needed to hit back there. but the whole debate was a shit show and trump needs to be better prepared next time. i’m still voting for him, but he can’t be the bully bc he’s going to make biden look sympathetic. | Yes | 1 |
still, with trump admitting he tried to overturn the election and offering pardons to the criminals i say vote blue until the right regains thier sanity. | Yes | 1 |
it’s sad, i didn’t want to vote for biden. but i couldn’t vote for trump in good conscious. why can’t we have two candidates in which i would want to vote for and it would be hard to choose between the two, that’s the america i want to live in. | Yes | 1 |
claiming the election was stolen. | Yes | 1 |
total votes: 27 \| last updated: 2020-06-08t23:03:37+0000. | No | 0 |
which is just as bad as a vote for trump. | Yes | 1 |
go fuck yourself, i'm looking at the situation from a pragmatic standpoint. i hate the fact that biden is the candidate. but he is our only option to stop trump. | Yes | 1 |
eight years later i thought it was a joke when the people at an interactive art exhibit i was attending chose a washed up, doting, old former b-movie actor as winner of the coming presidential race. months later that joke, ronald reagan, won the real presidency and went on to serve eight years in the office. despite lying to the american people about the need to invade grenada, (a country the size of kalamazoo, mi) to "rescue" fewer than one thousand american medical students, and lying about our country's illegal sales of weapons to iran in order to fund revolutionaries in nicaragua, contradicting himself and otherwise devolving into a series of alzheimer's-like "i don't recall" responses to questions from a commission he appointed to look into the affair, he remains one of our most highly regarded presidents. | Yes | 1 |
biden is the 100 people dead, trump is objectively worse and voting 3rd party helps trump win. do you see why i am voting biden even tho i despise him? it’s because harm reduction matters. | Yes | 1 |
they may act stupid, but they are able to convince an entire nation to vote for them. | No | 0 |
this is the exact attitude that got trump elected. the only people who didn't stop caring were small town conservatives. within a year, they convinced the republican party, the greatest proponent of free trade, to start trade wars. | Yes | 1 |
i thought mcconnell said he didn't have the votes? | No | 0 |
harder to do in statewide vote. gop gerrymandered districts, sure. | Yes | 1 |
except that trump has been railing against certain types of voting, which seems like a clear message to republicans not to vote that way. so maybe 100% for biden? | Yes | 1 |
just vote biden. (i’m not implying you wouldn’t i’m just saying at the end of the day we are both voting the same). | Yes | 1 |
here's the thing: people will only vote for someone they know and like. | No | 0 |
i'm looking forward to vote with you. | No | 0 |
so, what did they just move on from the other voting rights bill we asked that would have helped african americans? we could get an anti-asian hate crime through congress, another covid stimulus, infrastructures working through, but anything dealing with black voters is just not an option? | No | 0 |
2. polls coming out suggest that a majority of minority voters don't care about the race of biden's vp, they just care about beating trump. i don't think you need to pick a diversity pick vp, and considering biden's age, i think you need someone very qualified to take over if something bad would happen to biden. this poll suggested the same thing, with warren being 1st among african american voters (barely over harris and abrams for 2 and 3). | Yes | 1 |
another fuck around and find out candidate. | No | 0 |
for the love of god dont vote trump. | Yes | 1 |
i feel like for as long as i’ve been voting, ndp has been a liberal protest vote in safe left leaning seats. why would someone risk a pc seat by voting ndp. if your values align with the ndp, the liberals are infinitely preferable to the cpc. these ndp candidates either don’t exist or are uninspiring. if i were them i would focus on attracting star candidates for ridings with a history of voting ndp. same with the greens. there is some appetite for change but people don’t want scheer. a minority liberal government could be made to make progress on electoral reform. a ranked ballot could be the nail in the coffin for conservative majorities and would open the door for actual competition and debate among the left. no more strategic voting. | Yes | 1 |
[trump slams biden, teases 2024 presidential run in first post white house speech ()](. | Yes | 1 |
he stole it. jesus. it's not a difficult distinction to make or understand. doubts about my assertion? well, half his campaign team is in prison or in the wings waiting for their turn through the wringer. fuck this willfully ignorant bs about "winning" the election. | Yes | 1 |
if only gerrymandering and election fraud weren't such an issue. | Yes | 1 |
someone or a group who has power within our party (donor/elite) is taking aim at biden. perhaps its retaliation for not considering a preferred vp pick. his vp pick has higher odds of rising to the position of president during his term. perhaps internal polling shows him a weak candidate by the end 3rd quarter against trump and they want him out but he refuses. while cliche as hell, yes even perhaps a well known, blindly loyal and highly optimistic cheer squad has gotten drunk on their hubris. | Yes | 1 |
she is a decent shout to be in the administration but i just don't see where she gets the delegates to lead the party going into the general election. | Yes | 1 |
i’m not going to waste my vote for a specific party, just because omg the libtards. i’m voting for the person, who i share common values and policies with. | Yes | 1 |
voting for the guy or gal who atleast shares some of your ideological positions. | Yes | 1 |
... he didn’t win the popular vote by anything that would be remotely considered a landslide. his election ranks as one of the closest in history according to the electoral college. | Yes | 1 |
interesting, you vote him in sight unseen? i went to several dinners and lodge functions and got two brothers of the lodge to sign my petition and be interviewed before i was voted on. which was required. | Yes | 1 |
harder to do in statewide vote. gop gerrymandered districts, sure. | Yes | 1 |
thank you, pandaxolotl2007, for voting on iamyodabot. | No | 0 |
thank you, rasm635u, for voting on iamyodabot. | No | 0 |
all biden has to do is sit back and let trump kill his own re-election bid. | Yes | 1 |
let them vote. | No | 0 |
no, what happened tonight signals bloomberg voters to vote for biden instead. all they wanted was someone strong to run against trump who wasn't bernie. biden looked week until a week ago. 2 strong debates and a landslide win. they'll mostly vote biden now. | Yes | 1 |
total votes: 13 \| last updated: 2021-10-01t02:34:01+0000. | No | 0 |
it’s an internet thing. i think there actually are hardcore leftists who won’t vote for biden, but they’re being disingenuous. they wouldn’t have voted for any democrat anyway and are essentially accelerationists who want the system collapse because they actually believe, or think they believe, that the only way to progress is a literal armed revolution to seize the means of production, despite how profoundly preposterous that is. | Yes | 1 |
overall the "moderates" not named biden syphoned off significantly more votes and delegates from biden than warren took from bernie. | Yes | 1 |
bro u live under a rock. no other platform? you realize biden has an incredibly low approval rating right? he shut down domestic oil production and directly caused gas prices to soar. inflation is skyrocketing and biden prints trillions more to make it worse. liberal covid mandates are retarded. that only affects 1% of people? next election is going to be a fucking landslide when all of us “bigots get out of our trailers and vote”. | Yes | 1 |
well as long as we can keep our guns this will never happen, let a liberal back in the white and it just might happen. so keep america great and vote republican!!! | Yes | 1 |
voting biden undermines our power as progressives. you wrote a ton to say very little. the ideas are incredibly stupid. "clown on him" lol. | Yes | 1 |
i cannot fathom how you vote to re-elect a guy who's killing us all. | Yes | 1 |
show me the votes. we're not talking about candidates. anyone can be a candidate. we're not talking about possibilities in the future. show me the votes. the one thing that matters. | No | 0 |
also, to your point: voting for trump is a personality trait. these people still fly american flags with his name on it… biden fucking sucks, but he’s no trump. and yeah, i voted for for biden but i’m realistic about his shortcomings and i don’t fly a “biden” flag like i’m in a fucking cult. | Yes | 1 |
stalinism is when the government does stuff. biden will do stuff if he is elected. thus bidenism = stalinism, smh. | Yes | 1 |
i see they are already voting. | Yes | 1 |
sad thing, i voted for him. | Yes | 1 |
vote here! | No | 0 |
that's an extremely shitty reason to vote for trump. democrats aren't coming for your guns. | Yes | 1 |
this is really my point about electoral reform - big ideas with little or no care as to how they would work in practice. | Yes | 1 |
can i vote its just a tv show? | No | 0 |
well she just won my vote! | No | 0 |
not that i agree with this, but youtube has done this loads of times in the past. also no one said biden is anything close to the most popular president, most people voted for him because he wasn’t trump. | Yes | 1 |
what about democracy? can't voting fix our problems? | Yes | 1 |
yet, young people still don’t vote, and complain about the system you did nothing to help change through the ballot box. | Yes | 1 |
do these kinds of election finance reform do anything to stop people from out-advertising their opponents simple by being rich in the first place, or benefiting from fake news campaigns like “ontario proud” which overtly bundle together private money from special interests? | Yes | 1 |
biden won by popular vote over sanders by almost double. i think suggesting that his win was due to “rigging” not only silly but disingenuous. sanders would have lost the nomination even without them. | Yes | 1 |
biden also sunk all of his available resources and has spent most of his time campaigning in south carolina. | Yes | 1 |
there was a poll? | No | 0 |
only 17% of voters were looking for someone more conservative than obama, and 27% wanted someone more liberal. the majority though thought that obama was the right amount of liberal, and they went overwhelmingly for biden. | Yes | 1 |
this is all fine and good except for 2 things: 1- nothing has changed ot will for the 2020 election as far as the electronic baloots. 2- the dnc still runs the show. if they dont want bernie for a candidate then guess what's going to happen? yeppers--they will not nominate him. thats why bernie has essentially fucked himself with this election. he is flying under the democratic banner instead of independant. their party means their rules people----same as last time and same as next time. why berners dont know this is beyond me. | Yes | 1 |
nice try, i'm not ruining my 2032 presidential bid. | Yes | 1 |
