UNFU…

Nope. Totally fucking believable.

Looks like record low turnout for Los Angeles municipal elections.

This right here is the problem: elections with low turnout, which gives incumbents no incentives to do right by their constituents. https://t.co/ytkrwPA20a

People haven’t learned a goddamned thing. November didn’t teach anyone a damn thing about the need to vote in all elections. Instead, we see turnout in a trickle.

Next year are midterms, and that’s perhaps a last gasp to protect much of what remains of the safety net (the bits the GOP hasn’t destroyed by then, to say nothing of investigating Trump and his Russia connections, Sessions’ perjury, and all the scandals to come, etc.)
