FL also has recreational weed and abortion rights on their ballot this election. I'm not necessarily holding my breath, but those could help push their left-leaning voter turnout.

Those 3 states are huge, but the other swing states are definitely still a factor. If Harris wins all 3 Blue Wall states, she very likely will win the presidency. However, if she doesn't win all 3, then either candidate's victory will likely be decided by the other swing states - Arizona, Nevada, North Carolina, and Georgia.

I agree with everything you're saying, except:

We're founded under a "1 person, 1 vote" ideology

At the 1787 Constitutional Convention, delegates debated between Congress choosing the next president vs a straight popular vote. The former risked corruption between the legislative and executive branches, and the latter gave too much power to the uneducated, sometimes-mob-esque populous. After several debates, a compromised was reached - electors. These intermediaries wouldn’t be picked by Congress or elected by the people. Instead, the states would each appoint independent electors who would cast the actual ballots for the presidency.

Overall, though some founders agreed with a "1 person, 1 vote" ideology, they were not the majority... unfortunate though that was.

Not that I'm holding my breath, but having it (and legalizing recreational weed) on the ballot could make the Florida election more interesting.

clearly suffering from a mental health episode

It's horrifying that Trump's campaign manager would casually make this significant health claim on an official that dared to do his job rather than bow to Trump's will. Just horrifying.

Furthermore Trump's staffers verbally assaulted and physically pushed at least one cemetery official when that official tried to bar access into the photography-restricted area.

"since the financial crisis" - You'll have to be more specific than that 🥲

I was really hoping the second forgiveness plan would automatically include those that were approved for the first plan :/

Exactly. I was going to reply to the original commenter saying, like, you know he's still got 3 other trials actively in progress right? (Well, 1 of those is indefinitely halted, but still).

The last poll considered in that link occurred on March 2-4. So the results seem outdated in regards to the recent convictions.

So your advice is: 1) don't pay it and 2) work and live in a different country. Super reasonable! /s
