We won't be out of the woods until after he wins. And then we need to immediately change the constitution to prevent this BS again.

The last of my loved ones were burned out of CA last year, but it's still my home state. They desperately need to fix their State Constitution if Gavin survives this fiasco.

of California, even temporarily, affect the results of the upcoming midterms? I'm guessing GOP would gain strong control of both houses of congress again. Setting them up for 2024.

I do love breaking Republican hearts. Let's do it forever, over and over.

I would not take so much joy in it if they hadn't gone full Nazi.

But they did. Of course.

I vote in person since I actually love dropping it in the box and getting a sticker. I got all my 1st grade students into voting all the time too (for almost 20 years we did constant ballots/voting on all issues in my classroom). You have to start out very young when it comes to Civics.
