Kinja'd!!!

Many localities and counties are having elections tomorrow! If you like who is in office and you want them to stay? VOTE! Want to see change in your community? VOTE! Want a chance to possibly impact who might run our country one day? VOTE! :D

My city is so deep blue basically everyone on the ticket is running unopposed as a Democrat. Well, everyone except for the Mayor.

And this one is a pretty historic election for my city. If one candidate wins, my city will have its first black Mayor (weird for a city in which 75% of all residents are Latinx or African American). If the other candidate wins, we’ll have our first ever female Mayor.

One person is a typical establishment candidate with very questionable attack tactics borrowed from the Presidential election, the other an Independent with what appears to be a stronger following that the other candidate thanks to social media. It’s going to be fun!

P.S. I’m writing my review of the Impala as I speak, expect it to be posted soon!

Hmm, you made me look. Here in Wisconsin we have a conservative non-partisan state supreme court justice running unopposed. Great.

There is however a guy running for state superintendent of schools who is like Betsy DeVos. The incumbent is not like that. I need to vote for the incumbent.

Our mayor is unopposed sack of shit. Ran as an independent under the promise of helping the middle class in taxes. His voting history changed more parties than a village bicycle. Only good thing I hear about him is “he gave us a handicap parking spot after we called”. Besides that the guy thinks he’s greatest thing sliced bread and drives a jeep with a beatles tire cover (overrated band imo). His managing of the board of education crisis was about as useful as pouring gasoline into a fire. Overall the guy sucks.
