I take voting seriously. I do my research for every vote I cast. For local and state offices there are many resources, where media or other groups have sent a list of questions to all candidates then publish their responses. This was especially true for city council, county commissioners, judges, and others. All but city council are partisan. I have voted for republicans in many races because I agreed with their views and record. Basically I vote for the person, not their party affiliation.
Well trump has changed that, and for all partisan races, I'm voting democratic, unless there are some really big red flags, and I haven't found any on this years ballot. So my deep dive into what they say has been limited to the local city council and a few other races. This is my response to the power grab by the knuckle dragging draconian republicans.
If Trump wins, (or retains power) and does not have state, local, and national opposition, it would not surprise me to see things like the 1st, 2nd, 4th, and 5th amendment attacked by the administration, if not the entire BOR and Constitution. If you do not understand that Trump does not believe that the average deserves protection under the Bill of Rights (first 10 amendments) and other protections like Posse Comitatus then you need to start fucking paying attention.
So, how has Trump changed your views/voting for local and state offices, and their importance?
