People don’t vote because they see the system is rigged so the popular vote isn’t a great standard to go by either, it’s a product of the system as well
My area is such a strong republican district that my vote is functionally irrelevant aside from the president. Hell, they didn't even bother with democrat candidates on a local level.
It's like.. shockingly faster for me?
If I have to wait five whole minutes for fast food they're either slammed or they're having equipment problems. I can literally count on one hand the amount of times it's happened in the last few years.
Tbf, though, I don't eat fast food incredibly often. Maybe once a month.
