 Wow - *really* struck a nerve didn't I? 😃 

So--the issue at hand is whether you (as a single individual) can influence and ultimately change the results of a LOCAL election.

Serious question...do you believe this is possible? 
 Read the article I wrote 10 years ago.  Read the comments.  You are not important enough to redo what I already did a decade ago.   
 Already read your article (yes, seriously)...and it focuses almost exclusively on national elections, and really doesn't address local elections--

So I'll ask again:

Do you believe that  you (as a single individual) can influence and ultimately change the results of a local election?

Hint: saying "I don't have time to respond" is a cop out..if you'd like to have a discussion I'm open to debate. If you're not interested in hearing another opinion, that's fine as well...

 
 Literally 25% drills down to the "muh local elections" objection.  Did you fail reading comprehension in like junior high or something? 
 Clearly you're not interested in debate, as you're unwilling to answer the question.

And perhaps if you read your own article you'd see the word "local" does not appear in your missive--and I'm not interested in the comments of others--I'm interested in what YOUR response to the question posed would be.

And seriously, do you honestly feel insults and rudeness help make that case that you've got a valid point to make?

 
 You like to deflect and cry like a little bitch don't you?  😂  
 "Helping you live a better life"

Perhaps you might want to reflect on your tagline, and ask yourself if behaving the way you have in this exchange has helped anyone...

It certainly isn't representative of the altruistic image it seems you're trying to promote for yourself...quite to the contrary, in fact. 
 Cry harder.  And yea it helped anyone that wanted truth vs. catch phrases and platitudes.  
 If you refuse to use practical how to info because of feelings you are fucking doomed. 😂

Civvies. 😂 
 You people do realise your touchy feely existence is an insult to your much harder ancestors right?

🙄 
 What made you assume that the permanently offended, mostly useless pansies were the target of his help?

If you are crippled by words, there is no help on this earth... 
 Oh and read the comments like I said brought up and responded to 32 fuckin times.  Do you even know how control F works.  😝
