I wish liberals voted like this. It's clear who the 62.9% are.
I wish we could do this for president tbh

It would be really funny to have a constitutional crises over the public overwhelmingly voting 'none of these candidates'
I'm imagining that the candidates that lose to NOTC are barred from future contests, and NOTC keeps winning over and over and over until every single major figure in both parties is eliminated and we finally get a good election between Cornell West and Vermin Supreme.
you can, but it involves committing crimes
Lmao we are fucked aren’t we
We're going to get four more years of Generic Republican with Terminally Online characteristics. The liberals will be angry-sad. The conservatives will be horny-euphoric. The country will continue to shed any kind of useful economic function as state governments claw for the largest stockpiles of treats. And then we're going to have another Most Import Election Of Our Lifetime in 2028.
Critical support to the Mike Pence die-hard voters.
I thought he had withdraw. No ideia why 2000 people decided to vote for a guy who is not even in the election
No ideia why 2000 people decided to vote for a guy who is not even in the election
This sounds completely backwards to me. I have no idea why over 42,000 voters chose "none of these candidates" when a vote for Mike Pence will be counted exactly the same as that option but is quite unarguably funnier.
can someone explain? what does this mean?
Trump was not on the ballot
The loss is largely meaningless, because former President Donald Trump decided to skip the Nevada presidential preference primary and instead is expected to win the GOP-run caucuses Thursday night. That victory will give him all 26 of the state's delegates.
“I wanted Donald Trump to be on there,” said Republican voter Ron Stanley, 64, a truck driver, who dropped off a ballot in person in downtown Reno shortly before noon.
omg lol. is that because the republicans there are never Trumpers or something? or a legal challenge?
Nevada's a little weird this time. They held both a primary and a caucus, with the state of Nevada organizing the primary and the Republican party the caucus. The Republican party is actually boycotting the Nevada run primary because of something something Democrats. The caucus is still happening and Trump's involved in that one.
Normal democracy.
"State law requires both major parties to have a primary. But they can also have a caucus, which the state GOP decided to do.
Trump decided to participate in the caucus Thursday because the Nevada GOP said you can only get delegates towards becoming the Republican nominee if you participate in the caucus.
Candidates cannot participate in both."
GOP said you can only get delegates towards becoming the Republican nominee if you participate in the caucus.
Candidates cannot participate in both.
I am completely misunderstanding something because this reads to me like putting your name on the ballot is effectively forfeiting any hope of winning delegates and announcing that total lack of faith in yourself to the general public.
Just wait until South Carolina where Haley and Pence drop out and endorse Trump. After that Mr./Mrs. NOTC is finished
Haley is from SC so she probably will do better there
They hate her in SC, she'll do even worse there lmao
NOTC actually has the best politics of anyone in the US political system.
none of these candidates will improve living conditions
none of these candidates will clear out the depressing aura of the past six years
none of these candidates will be a compassionate person
none of these candidates will give a shit about poc and the poor
You wish they voted for the establishment candidate no matter what?
(Though, this primary didn't matter because the state/Republican party of the state is doing a stupid thing and not allowing primary candidates to be part of the caucus, high is where delegates are actually awarded.)
Yea. It is funny. NOTC is very clearly just trump voters. Also Haley is just as establishment as Trump is.
For dem side, I meant vote for "Generic Democrat" instead of Joe Biden.
In a hypothetical race without Mr. Biden, an unnamed generic Democrat leads Mr. Trump by eight points, 48 to 40 — a wider lead than the three-point edge held by an unnamed Democrat at this time in 2019.

oof
This is Ryan Binkley erasure!
big deal, a Not C almost always gets nominated by amerikkkans for their two corporate parties
expect to see two Not Cs vying for who gets to be in charge of the multiple genocides being carried out from Palestine, to their southern border, to trans people…
