I can't vote for the GOP because their stance on abortion and same sex marriage is a deal breaker for me. I can't vote for Dems because their stance on gun ownership, defunding the police and "progressive" prosecutors is a deal breaker for me. Yeah!
Yeah, it's a tough one. Democrats only win in city races, here, and they don't have much authority since it's a Dillon Rule state. State legislators in my area are always Republican and our governor switches off pretty regular and they are never very progressive plus they can only run once. Well, they can run for a second time, but not consecutively and only one person has done that. So anyway, there really isn't any opportunity for me to get tired of Democrats in my area.
