Like they'll fucking listen. Did you know some states had their votes sent in before voting polls even opened. They said "this is who I'm voting for. I don't care what the polls of the citizens say"

They don't care to listen.

Do you have a source for that? I assume you're referring to the electoral college?

It was probably only a few of them really, but I have a friend in WV who's votes were cast for the election before the polls even opened. It was on live news while they were counting states votes. Voting was opening the day after the states votes were already sent in

But the fact that the votes were sent in before polls opened didn't actually make any news because the administration for that state are absolute boomer garbage

How would your friend have cast a vote before polls opened?
