RE: Pushing Back Against Pro-Vaccination Zealots
I was fortunate enough to spend a few months up in WI. ^_^
Much of that was in the Summer-to-Autumn run-up to the 2004 elections. And I'll never forget how the media character-assassinated Howard Dean's otherwise seemingly strong nomination over "the Dean Scream" in the January prior.
Picket signs upon almost every front lawn. Political messages upon almost every channel be it radio or television.
That was over 13 years ago, and I'm fairly sure that WI isn't representative of the whole of the US (though they generally had a lovely laid-back demeanor (and really nice cheese))... ;cP
I sincerely take your word at face value, you living in the nation that I can only speculate about. :c)
Oh no... lack of sleep is not a good thing. :c/
yeah, there is a lot of campaigning that may take place, however, it is way out in the countryside that means the most. This is why the entire debacle of fake voting means so much since it has been a long and disgraceful practice here to buy votes and ship people in to vote from other states, etc. The miscounting in many counties where people are overlooked like people of color, the poor, etc. all votes are supposed to count. also, the votes that "never make it" by mail. so people who live out in the rural territories, which is why people were told to bring their vote into locked boxes this past election with cams.
okay well 2004 and 2018 are far different in atmosphere ... :p
i finally slept, yay!!
