    The votes in non-swing states still contribute to overwhelming support and popularity, which we’ll need when Trump’s cronies try to undermine the election.

    You’re not as pivotal as a Georgian, but you’re still very valuable. <3

      It is truly awful that people in certain states, and definitely in remote areas, definitely have their vote count more so than in others. It’s definitely ironic given that California is so key to our country, and yet…the people there are treated, electorally, like second-class citizens.
