Welcome to c/electoralism! politics isn't just about voting or running for office, but this community is.

Please read the Chapo Code of Conduct and remember...we're all comrades here.

Shitposting in other comms please!

put all of your election posting here so it doesn't bother anyone else!

from @CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net:

For Agitprop purposes, I’m asking comrades to help aggregate any and all effortpost responses, critiques, or general thoughts that you have seen or written pertaining to yesterday’s U.S. election that you think have standalone value for discussion either online or IRL.

I made a post for that purpose here, and ideally it can be used not only for general discussion, but as a reference for well thought out responses in discussions about the election to save all of us some brainpower.

No shitposts please, as we’d like to highlight some comrades’ actual effort in constructing responses or analysis, but humor is 100% welcome to help make your point!

Voting 3rd party is the funniest thing you can do to piss liberals off. PSL

I can't even vote 3rd party in my state, Dems took PSL and even the greens off the ballot. They kept the libertarians on of course joker-amerikkklap

Filling in a lot of "none of the above" bubbles this year.

Vermy is the obvious choice anyway, so nothing to complain about.

I can imagine 3rd party votes "costing" the democrats the election (going by their weird math where any vote not cast for them, would be cast for them if the voter was a good little doggie)
Will they learn from this and consider how their politics are turning people off? No they will instead use this to cast away all blame
