Remember - they are supposed to earn your vote. You aren't supposed to default to handing it to them.

If it was that simple politics would be way easier. But of course it isn’t like that. There’s a whole part of it where we work to build the party we want. Just walking up to the lever where it says “pull here or fascism wins” and then shrugging and walking off does not comprise an entire political system.

Doing this is very literally how we ended up here (unless that vote stealing scam thing turns out to be real).
