    Republicans just won’t turnout for this election, or likely the next one.

    Please don’t assume this! Like people assumed Hillary would suuuurely win over the joke of a candidate that Trump was in 2016.

    Go and vote!

      That was only people not paying attention, and people who thought repeating something enough would make it true.

      Go and vote!

      Everyone should always vote.

      Being informed and voting is better, and you don’t need to say “go vote” every time an election is brought up, especially not in online forums devoted to politics.

        you don’t need to say “go vote” every time

        Yes, please do. While Lemmy-Americans seem likely to vote, and to vote against fascism, it’s taking things for granted that lose elections

        This time around it’s extra-important. Too many people only vote in presidential elections and skip the years without. However it’s critical to put the brakes on fascism. Everyone needs to vote
