    Down ballot is good, though.

    There's probably some local measure to make things a little better, that big money interests are trying to demonize.

    And some local measure to make things worse, for everyone except real estate developers, that big money is trying to spin as a good thing.

    And things like who gets on the city council, or fuck, even the goddamn school board, matter a lot right now, because of covid.

      They're none. I live in a state that does not allow referendums.

      The mayor race is a boomer Democrat vs an anti mask anti science dem.

        It's the opposite where I live LOL.

        House district race is between 2 Republicans.

        Mayor race, between 2 Republicans.

        Only thing Dems are running in my state are in big cities and I don't live in any of them, and the usual governor and senator races that they aren't putting much effort into vs bat shit crazy GOP candidates.

        I'm with you too. Not voting at all.

        Boomer Democrat might suck, idk, not all boomers are bad, just most, but the anti mask anti science dem seems like they could potentially make your city or town far more dangerous if they get elected.

        I mean, I guess that's lesser evilism, but I'd rather vote against someone who would make my town into a covid hotspot, or if it already is, make it even worse, than not vote at all.
