Democrats and Republicans have a duty to vote for Susan Crawford in WI!

They also need to vote for Weil and Dimont in Florida congressional elections!

Don’t let wealthy elites like Musk buy elections! It’s unAmerican!

And Randy Fine (R) is a POS horrible human being. Republicans should be embarrassed he’s their candidate.

A guy I work with asked who I was voting for and I said "Crawford." And his response was you'll vote for anyone with a 'D' behind their name, won't you?" Which irked me, so I Dumbshitsplained to him that Schimel is running for a seat on the WI Supreme Court. And Elon Musk is out there buying votes for him, whether it's a $100 or a $1,000.000, it is a PURCHASED vote. For a SUPREME COURT JUDGE!!! What the Hell? He has in NO WAY attempted to dissociate himself from or repudiate Musk's vote purchases. Granted, he may not have shown up at Musk's town hall on Sunday in Green Bay, but that was more than likely to keep a Musk / Schimel photo op from occurring three days before the election, giving the opposition a Shimusk visual. I pointed out to my coworker that as far as I was concerned Schiimel was trying to become Wisconsin's very own Clarence Thomas. "You got money, I got a vote. Let's make a deal." Cause, damnit if he is willing to buy votes during a campaign, he will sell his vote once he's in office.

That explanation dented his thick skull, because his response to it was "Goddamn, now I've got to go vote."
