You’re right if you blame the registered voters who chose not to show up in protest because they didn’t like the options. And yes, I think that number would have tipped the scale.

But words are important, and you want to scream at 330m people like it’s all our fault.

Because no one in Oregon seems to be paying attention to how many millions are just absolutely lost. There have been many articles about the issue. Even on lemmy!!

As long as it doesn’t raise taxes, because Oregon taxes are spent on lunches and meetings.

It really should set a precedent. This was before Trump had “immunity” and if he did the same thing….

But we all know that won’t happen.

You mean all those people who got their voting rights removed for whatever reason? The people who are afraid to vote in person because of harassment? The people who cannot afford to take off work an entire day to wait in line? The people who live in a gerrymandered county who feel their vote won’t count anyway? People who have drug charges because of racism and can’t vote?

You mean all those people? You clearly know nothing about how voting in the United States works.

27% did. Shockingly high, I agree. But this is a legitimacy gap.

I know the rest of the world isn’t smart enough to know that the citizens don’t always represent the shit government.
