    This is one of the dumbest headlines I’ve ever read. If they lean blue, vote fucking blue… I mean should they vote red just because they don’t live in the city?

    “Aww man I really want to vote for a Democrat but I can’t because I live outside the corporation limit”

      Unfortunately both rural and coastal voters seem to want to treat each other like strawpeople instead of actually learning about one another. Can’t tell you how many times people assume everything about me just based on the fact I’m from the midwest and don’t live in a large city.

        I’m in the same boat, I live in a very rural area in the Midwest, and I lean blue, but I’m not distraught as to what to do about it. I just vote blue 🤷‍♂️. I’m not saying people living in rural areas are dumb, I’m just saying that this particular headline is dumb.

      Did you read the article? The headline is about young people, voting, and geography. Plz read the article.
