    I’m not voting because it concerns democrats that I am not voting for them

    Wouldn’t calling your representatives and notifying them of your dislike of their policies be even more effective?

    constitutionally protected right to choose not to vote

    If you have to defend your actions by saying “uhhh ok but it’s not illegal to do that” then your reasoning is bad and your actions are likely bad too

    Maybe if democrats fulfilled their promises

    Kind of hard to do when we’re only half of the government. I’ll let you know next time we have a supermajority (admittedly we could have done more last time we had one).

      What makes you think i havent? All you get is an answering machine anyway

      y’all are acting like im committing a cardinal sin by not participating in complying with a genocide

      Kind of hard to do when we’re only half of the government

      and how many more times will they lead us on. if they know that they cant fulfill it, why say it?? they constantly say we will do this, and this and that and then we get nothing but excuses citing conditions or factors that were well in play before they got the vote. intentional false advertising

        Realistically how do you expect this to work? Really think about it, the only thing that makes sense is to campaign on what you WANT to be the case. Unless you’re intentionally saying things that you personally wouldn’t want, all you’re doing is advertising what you want to do as a candidate. It’s impossible to know what will actually get done.
