Nebraska got weed and another state elected the first openly transgender U.S. Representative. Tlaib retained her seat.

Also, I learned that a grade school classmate won a state rep seat in one of the midwest swing states earlier and that's good news to me, at least.

I'm not convinced Kamala is a "functional adult" she never won a primary. -In fact she got less than 1% of votes in the two primaries (AK, and NH) she did run in respectively, in 2020..

Oh, haha-ah, you sweet summer child. Sure you will, after all but two candidates drop out of the race and give their hard-won delegates to the conservative candidate in exchange for cabinet positions. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Results_of_the_2020_Democratic_Party_presidential_primaries

--I kid, with the condescension, because this is what happened before many of us got a chance to vote in the primaries in 2020 -A primary that Kamala Harris dropped out of because she was deeply unpopular.

50/25/25, huh? So that must account for Republican/Democrat/Left of Democrat -Where do you think the Libertarians stand in all of this? Do you think the Democrats lost this election because of third parties or was it because a significant chunk of former Democrat voters chose to stay home altogether? If former Democrat voters chose to stay home, then I ask you why?

Ah, yes. Hurting the homeless. Of course. Silly me.

Huh, I wonder what led to this failing? The source doesn't elaborate.

Things can always get worse.

Correct, even under Biden and Harris.

So, I'm just pondering here, but it seems to me that it's a bad Idea to run an unpopular presidential candidate because when voters choose to stay home, they also take their down-ballot votes with them.

What kind of rock? There are some pretty neat rocks out there.

Voting for a lesser evil is still being complicit in some degree of evil.
