The sad thing is that this applies in every state, in every election … no matter who wins or loses, the non-voting masses will scream about the results.
I worked the polls. Less than 10% of the people who normally vote in the general election voted in my district. As typically 50% or so of people vote in the general election (discounting 2020 which saw record turnouts), 5% of the eligible voters even voted in the primary.

This is the first primary I missed since I was old enough to vote. Storms and apathy got me. One time in many years.

If you don’t vote or are not even registered to vote – don’t complain to me when an EEJIT wins!!!

I have my mail-in ballot here with me in the nursing home. (I hope to be out by Memorial Day.)

If you didn’t vote, you have NO right to complain. None.

Those who do not vote should not be allowed to complain.

Maryland will vote in July. Most of our voting places are schools, so that works out better.

Record early voting numbers in GA. African American voting dramatically increased. So much for Jim Crow 2.0, eh?

Here in Indiana, voting in the democratic primary is a bust. The democrats are lucky to get one person on the ballot, let alone two.
I used to vote in the Republican primary, so I could vote against Mark Souder twice. Anyone remember the “good” christian, that cheated on his wife.

So glad Marjorie Greene won her primary. She’s the butt of all my Georgia jokes.
