    Friendly reminder to please go out and vote if you're a U.S. citizen and are of voting age. It's always a big one, but this one in particular is a pretty f---ing big one.

    Is a third party vote really a wasted vote? How do US Americans feel about this? I voted for a pretty small party in Austria this year and it sure felt like a wasted vote because they didn't even make it into the parliament but idk if I should be forced to vote for big parties, even if I align with none of them and most of their members are arguably horrible people

    It depends how close it is. You could find out tomorrow, or if it's very close it could take over a month.

    Race is a coin flip. If you squint, you can see Harris gaining a tad over the last week. Not sure if that's indicative of anything or just variance though.

    Hmm that doesn't seem to give people an adequate level of choice, does it. Well maybe it's better this way. We have a few more parties in Austria that have a chance of winning but basically it's just the choice of s---, s---, s--- and s--- so not much of an improvement tbh

    yeah that's just the system unfortunately, but voting outside of the two parties is throwing away your vote.

    Not from the US but go vote if you're from there! Can't moan like a b---- if your favourite candidate doesn't win otherwise!

    I voted on Halloween via mail in ballot. There’s a website you can visit to track your ballot, and they got my ballot days ago.
