aren't states generally more conservative with presidential elections?

not that i'm aware of.

with respect to 2020 senate vs presidential races in competitive states, there seem to be a fair share of both senate candidates that run ahead of the presidential and the reverse.  for a while trump was running ahead of most 'pub senate candidates, but that has recently flipped.  and for a while most dem senate candidates were running ahead of biden, but i think that is reversing too (because of undecideds, the relationships aren't just mirror images).

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Sounds right.  My grandfather was on blood thinners 5-10 years before his death and skin looked similar.  The skin becomes very thin.  Mitch could bleed out from a simple paper cut.

My dad's on blood thinners and his hands look like that.  He's always bumping into crap too so he almost always has a bandaid or two on.

Do blood thinners make your mouth and nose look like that too?

Yeah, you basically internally and externally bleed constantly if you are on enough of them.

So far, no matter what signs of aging I experience, I'm sorta always 18 according to what my brain often tells me. Like, I saw a video of someone skateboarding in a pool the other day and thought, "I should get out my skateboard and do some of that," and, like, I would probably literally die if I tried that.

I'm voting for one Republican, whenever it is I finally decide to go vote, and it's for the least likely of races, Polk County Sheriff. The Democrat hasn't filled out any of the questionnaires that I could find. The Republican incumbent, whether he believes it or not, has committed to all the reforms many are asking for from law enforcement, and I know for a fact that they have expanded their anti bias training.

I voted for 2 dems, the rest pubs, no to retaining any judges, and for the legalized gambling stuff (3 things)

Got a Republican candidate for sheriff here as well who surprisingly seems a lot more interested in actually improving accountability measures.

to be fair, Trump is the only republican on my ballot with a realistic shot at winning an office. Also a city council candidate who I think is running as a dem but everyone says is basically a republican if not explicitly a republican

I'm not sure any Democrats on my ballot have a chance of winning.

If I lived where you lived, I would probably vote for the DINO.

The Democratic Party sends me a cheat sheet that tells me which candidates and issues to vote for. Very convenient.

I’ll probably vote Democrat for President, Senate, and Representative. Somehow Republican for states attorney to vote against Kim Foxx .  Would have considered voting against Quigley for US Rep, but here’s one of his oppponent’s questionnaire answers:

:adios:

I did not vote for any pubs, but if this was 2 years ago with Bollier being my State Senator and Stephanie Clayton being my state rep, they were pubs then and I voted for them, and now they are dems so, :dunno: 

Most pubs these days are not even close to moderates
