It should be flushed out to sea. I'm trying to not talk directly about politics, so there's much more that I could say. I heard that the three recently appointed SC justices were part of the "legal" team in FL for the 2000 election heist.

I'm not opposed to a popular vote necessarily. The 2 party system is a pareto principle type problem though. For a 3rd party to gain prominence would require both to really suck, and the 3rd option to be so substantially better, and some luck.

The number one influence is surely $$$$$$$$$$. Even moreso since Dark Money
Citizens (Faux) Corporations United.

BTW, voting in general is worth nothing. A vote for a losing candidate is worth nothing, and any vote that isn't the final vote to swing an outcome is worth nothing.

Yes and no. Yes, "we the schlubs" are pretty much powerless.
No, one equally weighted vote per voter is the only fair way.

My vote in Oregon is worth nothing.

Yep, "red in a "blue" state. But voting for reds ___________.
Federal red politicians are more whorable than blues, and much of policy sucks. Nearly all of them vote for unethical militarism, for one.
