Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

My ballot had 3 options: Kamala Harris, Donald Trump and Robert Kennedy, Jr.
Write-ins are not allowed in Indiana.
Who should I have voted for?
Your choices were 3 flavors of right wing. Who you choose on your ballot is up to you.
I've been told for months now by people like yourself that no one should vote for Biden and then for Harris.
Now it's suddenly "it's up to you?"
No one should vote for them, but what you do is your business.
What does not voting at all achieve?
Who said anything about no vote?
Okay then, who should Hoosiers vote for? You said no one should vote for Harris.
That leaves Trump, Oliver and Kennedy.
Which of those three should no one vote for as well? Let's do a process of elimination here and take it step by step.
I assume Kennedy is not an option here since he dropped out already, but he's still on the ballot. Obviously, that's essentially not voting and you're suggesting that not voting is not a good choice.
So, that leaves Trump, the Republican and Oliver, the Libertarian.
Should no one vote for Trump?
No one should vote for Trump either. They are both garbage legislating for the benefit of the wealthy
Okay, so you think Hoosiers should vote for Oliver, the Libertarian? Because that's the only other option.
I know nothing about him, if he's anything like other libertarians he's garbage until proven otherwise
Well then we're back to not voting. Which you said not to do. You don't seem to have thought this through.
"I will never, ever, EVER explicitly make a claim for a course of action, because then you'll be able to refute my decision as stupid.
Instead I just want to hold my nose in the air over all of you sheeple and criticize and shame you for EVERY action, shaking my head and smirking like some kind of disingenous gaslighting machine. Happy Election Day!"
Congratulations on this important revelation, do you want a cookie?
