As the system stands your choices are incumbant or guy you probably disagree with on several issues. yes we get primaries, and that should be the place to make our issues known. We need to force both parties to hold primaries every 4 years. Term limts on lower offices would help too.

I'm sorry, you don't get primaries. Did you not pay attention during the months of August and September, when both the Democratic National Convention and the Republican National Convention simply told those people duly appointed by the electoral process to represent certain states and candidates to **** off? They weren't allowed to attend? I mean, seriously, have you already forgotten those shenanigans?

VOTE AGAINST THEM ALL.

I said should be. I'm more than happy to vote against most of the incumbants this time around. However I cannot in good conscience vote for someone who thought it was a good idea to 500+ years of bankrupcy law out the window, especially when the other guy has done a fairly reasonable job of trying to stand up to certain aspects of the party at personal political risk.

If they currently hold office, they should not be re-elected. If they are running unopposed, write-in <incumbent shall vacate seat>.

DFK!?

DFK!'s political stance for the past ~decade I've known him has been summed up in three words: Vote Out Incumbents. When he infect you?


Indeed.

The only question you have to ask yourself at the voting booth isn't "do I agree with the other guy?" It's, do I like how things have been going?

If the answer is "no." Vote out the incumbent. Fire the guy in office often enough, and they'll start actually paying attention.

Until then, you're wasting your time.
