For civil discussion of US politics. Be excellent to each other.

Rule 1: Posts have the following requirements:
▪️ Post articles about the US only

▪️ Title must match the article headline

▪️ Recent (Past 30 Days)

▪️ No Screenshots/links to other social media sites or link shorteners

Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. One or two small paragraphs are okay.

Rule 3: Articles based on opinion (unless clearly marked and from a serious publication), misinformation or propaganda will be removed.

Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, ableist, will be removed.

Rule 5: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a jerk. It’s not acceptable to say another user is a jerk. Cussing is fine.

Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

Issue 1’s ballot language was rewritten to make it sound like it was doing the opposite of what it’s intended to do, it should be illegal what they did.

And Frank Larose is an evil piece of shit.

There's some wacky shit being said about this ballot issue on some right wing outlets. My trumpster uncle insisted that issue 1 is to force schools to provide abortion services in school nurse offices.

It's baffling to me LaRose got away with this. Luckily, every street corner has a pair of signs - either Trump/Vote no OR Harris/Vote yes. Makes it easy to remember.

Heres a picture of issue 1 on my absentee ballot.

It's absurd.

I can't remember any issue/amendment on my ballots in the past that didn't require some research to figure out what exactly a yes or no would lead to. They seem to always be worded weird to trick voters, and always come from a certain party. Go figure.

If you're in NC and haven't voted yet, btw, vote NO for ours. Stupid GOP.
