You know, I get that. But I’m very leery of people treating their vote as symbolic or irrelevant. Because there’s a threshold when it suddenly isn’t, and none of us know when that is.

And the fact you feel that way is the fault of the Electoral College, which is the REAL problem (well, the actual fixable real problem is the Apportionment Act of 1929, but that’s another thread)

I like to point out to people that if their votes were truly irrelevant, Republicans wouldn't be going to so much effort to take them away.

Yah. CA also, my vote is important, top down ballot. Piling on popular vote count is not peanuts either. The glaring disconnect btwn national pop vote and electoral more and more blinding. Reform more likely if we blowout the score. Plus momentum and cohort vibe w out of state friends/fam.

Man, you're really going to make me rethink my decision to withhold my vote from Adam Schiff if he's not within ten points of the jackass Republican he wanted to run against.
