Shitty reporting by the local media in my Commonwealth.
Firearms Owners Against Crime listed contacted the delegates and listed who they were supporting, and the candidates also reported which delegates were supporting them. If you had bothered to do enough research, which in 2016 means checking your damned e-mail, you knew which delegate to vote for.
The fact that a majority of the unwashed masses being clueless is exactly why only property owners should be allowed to vote.
Americans and their fucked up system of voting has become a joke to the rest of the world. This explains perfectly why more than 60 to 70% of eligible Americans don’t vote.
Delegates, Caucuses, Super-delegates, Electoral College… how is this even democratic? Try explaining it to any other nation that democratically elects their leaders… in those countries basically it comes down to:
The one that gets the most votes – wins.
I’m originally from Washington state… where my vote does not count… why should I vote and why should I even care. After 25 years living abroad (in one of those evil socialist countries). I have double-citizenship via marriage, I reside in a country where my vote does count – every single time.
This political process is called a socialist-democracy… Americans should check into it… it’s a great system.
just a minor clarification, but what you’re referring to isn’t the US election system, those are the private primary systems that private parties have put together and agreed on.
The electoral college is separate from the other things though, that’s real, and it’s real bullshit.
Jon Stewart groomed a shitload of talent, didn’t he…
Actually, the Republican system is far more balanced. LA manages to be super corrupt, regardless of party.
