where do you get that? no one i know likes him. the conservatives hate him, the liberals hate him, the two other leftists i know hate him, like this could be a geographical oddity but it spans half the state (and one of the leftists is in LA but geographically we consider her an outlier. she likes it that way).
you’re asking the wrong person dude. it’s either [Democrat vs. Republican, Democrat wins] in the general so the real election is which Democrat wins the primary, which fuck if I can explain I voted for Porter this time.
yeah, in general elections we end up with someone 22% of the voting population actually wanted as governor/senator/whatever other had-to-call-a-statewide-election office, about 40-50% of us holding our nose and saying “well at least they’re not a republican” and the rest are republicans. At least that’s what it feels like to me.
like flip the parties and that’s what it was like living in Utah. it was weird. there used to be a lot of overlap between liberal-state conservatives and conservative-state liberals. not just the candidates, the people too. like, a lot of us/them believed in the same things and principles. not so much anymore
