Young people don't vote. Trump voters will be dead. It's up to, basically... well, the 40-50 people on ST. -- nm - Mop Mar 17, 20:47 8
- I vote Krusty. -- nm - David Mar 17, 20:50 7
  - I appreciate your support. -- nm - Krusty Mar 17, 20:59
  - The "A sneaker in every pot stash" platform is a surefire winner. -- (edited) - Beryllium Mar 17, 20:54 5
    - i'm sure a pot stash in every sneaker is more practical -- nm - zeitgeist Mar 17, 23:33
    - Wait. - znufrii Mar 17, 21:00 2
      - I tend bar, and I listen. But I don't remember things reliably enough to not always be concerned about misremembering. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 17, 21:07 1
        
        (Maybe picard S2 can have "defective guinan" ... although come to think of it, I would prefer detective guinan) -- nm - Beryllium Mar 17, 21:07
    - Yeah! - Krusty Mar 17, 20:58
And yet in FL (and likely AZ) where vote by mail is common and easy, turnout was up over 2016 -- nm* - ty97 Mar 17, 20:34 1

If this is still ongoing in the fall, the math indicates that many government officials will be dead by then. -- nm - David Mar 17, 20:27 8
- Supreme Court deaths should be terrifying to think about -- nm - Bacon Mar 17, 21:39 4
  - You misunderstand my intent. If Coronavirus is still a significant problem in six months, governments may have collapsed. -- (edited) - David Mar 17, 21:46 3
    - One of the threads I read (e.g., grain of salt) suggested about 2 years before things can start returning to normal. - Beryllium Mar 17, 22:05 2
      - It all depends on people's definitions of normal. I expect Americans to be out and about again in eight weeks.* - David Mar 17, 22:19 1
        
        I'm taking the "over" on that one. - Beryllium Mar 17, 22:33
- *does the math* ... checks out. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 17, 20:34 2
  - Come November, America needs to wash its hands of Conservatives. -- nm - Beryllium Mar 17, 20:36 1
    - well, they should wash their hands, regardless... -- nm - znufrii Mar 17, 20:45
