Who is going to be the next President of the United States?

[Archie]

Even in my state of Michigan, the race is decided by a few counties.

that's a misleading way of saying it

 

[FairWarning]

But whoever the majority of Michiganders vote for gets the state, right? Regardless of county?

Right. Still out of 90ish counties, three are purple and can change who wins. Three are 7-8 blue counties that basically even the other 80 red ones out.

I get your point, but both sides are spending a lot of money in Kent and Oakland counties (Grand Rapids, and a Nicer suburban area of Detroit)

 

[Archie]

yeah politicians should be forced to spend equal amounts of $ in Kewewnah county and Oakland county.

I'm just not sure what your gripe is.

That's clearly not true. Every red vote in those blue counties counts, and every blue vote in those red counties count. Living in one of the purple counties doesn't affect the value of your vote at all.

I never knew that Arnie was hung like that

If the polls are somewhat accurate, it will come down to those two counties..

ah give it up. sometimes easy concepts are hard

Well they campaign in the same areas for a reason. They are not going to Berrien County Michigan to swing 1000 votes.

So you can sit this one out then if you aren't in one of those counties 👍

No because the smaller races mean just as much. The media and uninformed voters don’t know or care.

...and also every presidential vote counts exactly the same in Michigan.

So then it comes down to Kent and Oakland Counties. Like I said.

yes the 20-25% of votes that will be cast in those 2 counties is what will decide it

not the other 4+million votes all around Michigan, those ones won't matter

He will be there. With the importance of Pennsylvania, it wouldn’t surprise me if he’s painted in black and gold

 

[Cougar Bait]

Maybe just his schlong painted in gold
