Don't really care. We think we have had bad choices.
Actually that isn't true. I want Trump to win if for nothing else but to see the meldown from the liberal left!

County Mosquito Control group manager was a bit of an eye opener on my ballot!!!

Is there a Republican method of mosquito control and a Democrat method?
Then there're the Greens, who probably don't believe in mosquito control at all. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

Mosquito control is obviously a Republican thing... "DRAIN THE SWAMP!"
Actually, that might just work ____________________ Husqvarna Vitpilen 401, Yamaha XSR700, Honda Rebel, Yamaha DT175, Suzuki SV650 (loan) Fazer 600, Keeway Superlight 125, 50cc turd scooter |

The challenger is the owner of a large pest control firm, I couldn't find any info on either of them but they do both have the outward appearance of stereotypical Republicans and there are plenty of red signboards out for both of them, Dems use blue backgrounds.
Despite the fact that this is a seriously right wing county, where Enoch Powell would get run out of town for being too socialist, some of our Republican representatives do a great bi-partisan job and draw support from both sides of the political spectrum. I don't know a thing about the chaps in mosquito control (because why would I?) but only a fool would vote against our supervisor of elections, who does a great job and should easily be returned for 4 more years on top of the 8 that he's already served.
Local politics is often more about the person and what they do for the locality rather than their party affliation.
Our local congressman, one of the richest in the US, may have done a few good things in his dozen years but he's a repugnant arsehole who's been done for witness tampering, funding irregularities, not revealing some of his business dealing as well as being tied to some distinctly iffy voting irregularities in the county south of here where 18,000 votes for congressman race mysteriously disappeared one year- the hospital board chairman race received more votes that year than the race for congressman! He'll still be likely returned this time round.
If anyone is interested my county has had 63% of registered voters ballots counted to date, turnout is expected to be around 80%. Approximately 68% of the county population is registered to vote.
Registered Republicans make up 45.5% of those votes cast, Dems 32.6% and 'others' 21.9%. (Bear in mind that not everyone will vote entirely along party lines but many, if not most, will with most common exceptions for people like the aforementioned county elections supervisor). ____________________ Make mine a Corona. |

tl;dr a rude awakening |
A rude awakening that they completely misinterpreted, and so they only add to the problem
Let them see how they like it when the Antifa candidate for Portland gets elected, which is akin to saying it's all gone wrong, so let's double down on what made it all go wrong. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

It's hard to believe that a generally well educated and prosperous country like the USA can come up with such unappealing candidates on both sides.
How anyone can vote vote Biden when he's clearly suffering from Alzheimer's or Dementia I don't know, the Kamala woman is just waiting to pounce but even less would vote for her.
Surely there must be some politicians with intelligence and charisma who would have a general appeal even if you didn't like all their policies.
Obama was almost there but before that you have to go back to Kennedy I think.
Since Biden has no good words for the UK post Brexit we should hope Trump wins, which he will*

There's no actual scientific medical evidence to support the wild claims about Biden's mental state. Yes he's getting on but he's able to marshal his thoughts and present his case clearly. It's just smear tactics on the part of the Trump campaign which frankly, isn't surprising given their track record of "alternative facts"
I'm not sure who will come out on top but I sincerely hope the poll predictions are right and Biden wins by a healthy margin.
I will, however, predict that if he does win then Trump won't be gracious in defeat. I'm betting on a full toys out of the pram tantrum. The man has been a disgrace to high office and I can't see that changing on little bit. |
