#mid term election
Text
I want to ask every young person who is no older than 40 years old . Why do they think it is cool to stay a liberal and a Democrat? Is it because the mainstream media says so? Is it because peer pressure from your peers that they may think you are uncool if they found out you're a conservative? Or is it because it is a popular trend to younger crowds?

Image text from ACLU:
Know your election day rights.
If the polls close while you're still in line, stay in line - you have the right to vote.
If you make a mistake on your ballot, ask for a new one.
If the machines are down at your polling place, ask for a paper ballot.
If you run into any problems or have any questions on Election Day, call the Election Protection Hotline: 1-866-OUR VOTE (1-866-687-8683)

USA midterms, the democracy at stake:
By Jacques de Miscault
Tuesday, every American citizen will have to vote for the midterm elections. During this midterm year, all 435 seats in the House of Representatives and 35 of the 100 seats in the Senate will be contested. The democracy of the country could go either way.
After a presidential election with lots of tension between Biden and Trump, the invasion of the Capitol by the Trump sympathizers, the current mandate by Biden is not very convincing and the republicans are as important as they used to be. The result of tomorrow’s vote will determine the path that the country will take. A democrat win would free the shoulders of a President close to fall. If the republicans obtain most of seats in the House of Representatives, it will cause a lot of tension in the country and even block the government to take decisions.
Therefore, last Saturday all Biden, Trump, and even Obama were in Pennsylvania to tip the scale in a race for the senator seat. Big names on both sides are betting everything they’ve got to win, current president Biden said that “The result will shape the country for decades, and the power to shape this result is between your hands”. A sentence with lots of drama inciting the citizens to make the right choice. Will they hear the call of their demanding president? Tomorrow's results will give us a big hint.

GO VOTE
Tw mentions for: Racism, sexism, transphobia, homophobia, abortion discussion, anti-Semitism mention, anti-islamic mention, voting rights, miscarriage mention
Guys, please please please go out and vote. I was born in dictatorship that my country still hasn’t recovered from. I and millions of others lost so much in my country and my country is FAR from the only one. With that said USA:
Democracy is on the block for so many countries, but we have early voting and the Election Day. GO OUT AND VOTE. If Republicans get the majority in the House or Senate, our rights could be taken away. People say it won’t happen, well, people said the same about Roe vs Wade, but it did.
You have no excuse. Voter apathy because things are bad? So you’re just going to sit there and do nothing while things get worse? The biggest voting demographic are boomers. Why the hell are people, especially young people, allowing THEM to make the decisions that will affect everyone with people under 50 being affected the most. Voter apathy is handing the election to the far right.
Lgbtq+ people are in serious danger. People are banning lgbtq+ affirmative care, especially for transgender people. People are wanting to harm lgbtq+ people for EXISTING. Not even libraries are safe. LGBTQ+ marriage is at risk.
Teachers are finding it increasingly difficult to be allowed to teach history, literature or politics because of the far right narratives they’re being forced to teach. LGBTQ+ kids are not safe in the class room.
People are dying from not being able to access emergency abortions and DNCs (a procedure that helps remove excess tissue build up that can sometimes be from abortion but often times not. Considering there is even a small chance of the dnc being used for abortion, it’s why republicans are attacking it.)
Btw, an ectopic pregnancy is impossible to survive without medical intervention. People are nearly dying or dying in hospitals because it’s too late - the hospitals have to consult their lawyers first.
People aren’t being prescribed medications that have even the tiniest side effect of a miscarriage. These are drugs people need to LIVE. Drugs that treat lupus, cancer and reproductive disorders to name a few.
And for many others, Medicare, Medicaid and social security benefits are being attacked. Yes, that is something old republicans are going to suffer but for those saying everyone deserves it - what about the democrats that are that age? Why should they have to suffer? What about the tons of POC whose votes were ignored because of gerrymandering? And voting rights are under attack RIGHT NOW.
People of Color’s voting rights are in serious danger because of government officials redrawing boundary lines so their vote is skewed, or how they have less voting places and have to travel farther, or deal with a lot of voter intimidation in addition to what’s already out there.
Immigrants are still being treated as second class citizens with cruel stunts by republicans like flying them to other states to be used as political pawns and it’s getting worse.
Anti-Semitism and anti-Islamic sentiments are growing and are becoming increasingly dangerous with attacks on religious institutions and violence.
Gun violence “thanks” to republicans blocking everything from the state level to federal level. I’ve lost track of all the school shootings.
Our world is burning due to climate change being ignored and corporations. Again, don’t let republican boomers and older make these decisions for us.
Get. Out And.Vote. I understand there are some individuals that truly can’t vote due to circumstances including lack of access or even safety reasons, but if you have the chance to vote and you choose not to? Well, that’s in your right but you may not have the right to choose to go ahead and vote in the future. Do not get complacent if you see democrats winning at the polls. People thought the same thing in 2016 and 2020 was a VERY close call.
Brazil won their elections and got rid of a horrible man. It shows it CAN BE DONE. Save yourselves from the dictatorship I and so many others have gone through. I BEG you to please vote. So many people are scared right now. I already voted. I know this is going to piss people off, but I’ll say it anyway: If you are someone able to vote, have access and you’re still not convinced or care enough to vote, then I find it really hard to respect you.

Sorry, if you don’t mind me asking what is the election for I’m British so I’m clueless
Oh damn, I'm an idiot and I forgot to specify. I'm sorry.
Here in America today is mid-term elections. The primary focus is on the U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives. Whoever controls the House or the Senate controls the agenda(s). On a smaller scale it decides which city and town elects can make everyday people's lives slightly better or more annoying.
It gets much deeper than that but that's the gist. I'm sorry for not clarifying where it is Election Day.

Coworker: I like going to the ballot box in person. it feels more important.
Me: I get that, I sent my vote in by mail last week but I didn't get a sticker.
Boss: I voted in person this weekend and they gavem e two stickers and one must be yours. I think it was halloween themed because it has a weird gremlin on it.
Me, remembering meme history: Is it a multicolor head with legs?
Boss: Yeah how'd you know?

Me: Yes... that's definitely "my" sticker...

If Voting didn't matter:
-a certain party would not be trying to make it HARDER to vote
-entire groups of people wouldn't have had to fight for the right to it in the past
-they wouldn't put armed people as "poll watchers"
-they wouldn't be scared of you voting against them

"nothing changes if you don't vote"
"republicans vote"
They also do active work towards their political goals that go further than just screeching at people to vote. Like running for office so people can vote.
I can not express how much of Every election Ever is not voters fault, but the fault of every capable liberal and leftist who sits around telling us to vote/read theory but never actually uses their privilege to do any active part of dismantling racism or anything else they pretend to care about, including the actual bare minimum of getting blue votes which isnt voting, but running for office so people can vote blue.
Non-voters aren't the problem. The people to blame are the same fucking people that are always to blame throughout all of history. People who see awful things happening around them and still sit around doing nothing but feeling guilt and fear they might be treated the same way. So they choose to follow the fucked up laws and status quo of a government that doesn't give a shit about them, meanwhile finding ways to blame the Actual victims of the government so they can feel better about protecting themselves instead.
"vote"
A fairy tale for liberals who don't wanna confront the reality that they don't have any power over their lives.
My executively dysfunctional, depressive, disabled, unstable ass sure doesn't. Couldn't run for office even if I wanted to. Relying on EBT and racist federal workers. Relying on others to run for office with my best interest in mind. I rely on on this government and it's people to take care of me and people like me but look where that got me. You think that was my choice? That I voted for this life? Did you vote for me to struggle like this?
No, you didn't.
But I am. Lots of people are. Because voting doesn't work. Because our problems are systematic and the things influencing us are systematic. They aren't things you vote for or would be ever put up for a vote in the first place. You can't vote blue without a Democrat that isn't on your ballot, for example. And lots of us can't fix things ourselves through normal political means like running for office cuz every branch of the US is inaccessible to us in a very racist, queerphobic, ableist, and classist way.
Voting isn't enough, it never was. It's not even the bare minimum. The bare minimum is doing something. Protest, burn something down, participate in mutual aid, run for office yourself, become a journalist that's Honest and unbought. But just saying "yeah I like this one" and coloring in some boxes every 2-4 years isn't fucking it. It never was. And thinking otherwise is exactly why I'm looking at ballot with no fucking democrats, progressives, or leftists on it.
I'm fucking begging you all to do more than vote and scream at everyone else to vote. Begging. Please fucking do more than that. And don't "we are" me because I'm looking at a ballot in one of the most progressive states in the country and objectively no you're fucking not.

Living in a predominantly black southern city sometimes makes you forget you stay in racist states. It’s almost like living on your own island……. until elections lol
