      There were deep red states that swung to purple because people actually went and voted. You are one out of many saying this and therefore making it worse. If you don’t cast your vote then your vote actually means nothing and you’ve done nothing to change it.

        I never said I dont vote, just that it doesn’t matter when I’m a very small minority. I’ll believe my area can swing when I see it.

          Do you know everyone in your area? Do you know who all is voting? I used to say the same thing and now I vote in all elections including midterm because I see all these people who keep saying that their votes don’t matter and I never want to be part of that again. You are one out of hundreds saying the same thing who are part of the problem. Maybe if people actually used those few minutes to go vote then maybe that would change, but it’ll never happen if you sit around being defeatist.

            I’ve been to my county and state fairs, LOOTS of red hats. You again seem to be assuming that I just sit on my butt and do nothing when I’ve said nothing of the sort, there’s a difference between being defeatist and acknowledging a very one sided battle.
