 the result of the US election is going to be decided by under 100,000 people who are the "swing voters" of the "battleground states"

the rest of the country doesn't even have to vote because it neutralises the other half, they have all the numbers figured out

it's the same in all elections - only the flip-flopping "i'm not sure"  people really matter

kinda tells you something about the people with the power referred to in the word "democracy" and what kind of character rules democracy

people without principles, looking for the hottest deal
