As a Californian, my vote for president is practically moot, but I still vote because my votes for state and local elections are much more impactful, and I try to do at least enough research that I’m not stabbing in the dark, and if I don’t feel informed enough, I leave that one blank.
My daughter is super sad about it. We went down to SoCal to do theme parks a couple of weeks ago and there are still a few down there so we went twice just for her. I’m sad about it too; they felt less fake than a lot of fast food.
