    I don’t believe we’ll have a representative legislature, or congressional delegation, until we can flip the state-wide offices. So blue voters in blue cities absolutely matter to get us there. We have to turn out in such high numbers to overcome the gerrymandering.

      Oh shit yes absolutely! I didn’t mean it to come off as if I’d quit voting, there will definitely be 2 blue votes coming out of the AquaTofana household every single election, we even go to the local ones!

      Just…man. I wish our address was in at least one of the purple districts on the edge of the county instead of the solid blue district we’re in right now. I want to spread it out!
