    When you shop for a place to live, do you buy/rent nothing because nothing is “perfect”? Or do you weigh the benefits and detriments of each available option and choose the best one?

    There’s a clear choice, and if you need to see what voter apathy gets you, look at Venezuela. We got a second chance because the Jan 6 attempt failed. If you don’t vote, the usurper might win.

      I would rather buy if i settled down or retired. I never weigh the benefits because I am always renting…well at least for the past 15 years. In my circumstance it is the best option. I currently can’t vote because I am not currently in my home state. I would vote harris but can’t vote because the rest of the year is filled with contracts for me to travel.

            Absentee ballots work just like in-person ballots. You just mail them in instead of dropping them in the box at the polling place.

            What state are you in? It’s not hard to request an absentee ballot.

            I find it fascinating that you have no preference between the candidates. Do you really think it won’t matter which wins?

            I hoped so in 2016,but then we saw what happened after that.
