Interesting. I actually thought of it as a replacement for Google. With Google search being broken for years it's the only easy way to get information now.

Maybe if we had an election system that wasn't broken we wouldn't need to worry about the Greens.

Anus is way too sophisticated a word for them.

Can someone explain the process for polling? Do they call people on phones? How many? And the only people who pick up phones are old people so does this not count young people?

"FBI, OPEN UP!"

"Oh this is about Elon? Carry on."

I always found these a pain to clean. I had both types. And it's another single use device. I switched to a pot on the stove and never looked back. Bought a special pot that has vented holes on the side so the popcorn doesn't steam and get chewy.

Aww, Chuck Bartowski is a Trumper? That's a shame, I liked him.

You realize love can also mean you strongly like it, right? I love pizza and wings. So what's exactly going though your mind when I take it home?

It would not. There is already a pact with a bunch of states that say once they have enough support they will put their electoral votes towards the popular vote of the country not the popular vote of their state. If enough states get on board the EC becomes powerless. Because the states determine how they vote.

They are getting close. A couple more states needed for activation.

Even if the 10 largest cities all voted Democrat that would only account for 8% of the vote. And not everyone votes the same way in a city either. There are plenty of republicans voting in major cities but their vote doesn't matter because of the college. Long Island went to Trump. NYC still got 400,000 votes for Trump. All this means is more people get a voice.

Why the hell would you use any identifying information on a porn account? I'm a nobody and I still use a burner email account with a fake name for logins on NSFW sites.
