I don't want to have to give any thought to the security of our elections. It's a pain in my ass to worry about something I have no control over but nonetheless I am frequently thinking about this. I don't feel reassured that measures are being taken to ensure machines are secure as well as voter registrations, things of that nature. Is this something any of you have given thought to?

I worry about the bus loads of old people walking in with bags of oreo cookies and a quart of milk with a "D" sticker that says "I voted" That and same day registrations. We have to show a licence here though.

Well founded fear, Duchess. I believe both sides may play some part in this

So your answer to not having the perfect candidate is to sit home and do nothing?

I have watched elections since 1976; DC has gotten worse each time. There is only one solution left: Article 5 Convention of States.

I worry about Voting for "Nobody"! Cause Nobody still wins!
* Nobody will keep election promises
* Nobody will listen to your concerns
* Nobody will help the poor and destitute
* Nobody cares about you & your family
* Nobody tells the truth
* Nobody can be trusted

I'm concerned about gerrymandering, I'm concerned about hacking, I'm concerned about unscrupulous politicians trying to trick the elderly into handing over their mail-in ballots so they can be tampered with in their favor, I'm concerned about all the naive people that are so easily persuaded by online influence merchants. I'm also concerned about the current administration being so god damn corrupt that they're reminding me of The Sopranos if Tony was a bumbling idiot.

When you can string together bigger successes and more quality successes in life than he can, you get to call him an idiot. Otherwise you are an idiot for not recognising he isn't.
Your only success as far as i can see is getting your lip fungus under control

Your concerns are just beginning.
