This is why I don't like mail in voting: People other than the voter can tell the person how to vote. It is just blatantly obvious in this case.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I would love to see the overlap of winners vs this poll.
That 48% makes me so fucking sad...
Had some people in a duel enrollment (collage level) class tell me last Friday that they'd vote for trump because "he's an asshole but I like his policies"
So who won the fight? What about at the watercolor level?
Let's just say it looked like a Jackson Pollock by the end.
Don't worry, at the collage level they're just bringing a bunch of pictures together
that's actually so funny I'm not gonna fix it lol

It’s mostly kids mimicking their parents feelings. Which is not the MOST sad. But still not great.
Hmmm. And what do you think happens when those kids grow up? Let's connect the dots, eh?

It's 48% sad.
I think this is much sadder than just the parents thinking like this. Kids should get to be kids and start their lives unencumbered by their parents' hatred and bitterness.

And the Dan Schneider feet award goes to...
Watch this be correct and nickelodeon replaces Nate Silver as the new polling god.
Losing candidate gets slimed.
Trump would probably love it if the slime were yellow and less viscous
I'm sure Marc Summers would be willing to slime politicians.

Did anyone ask for comment from the NVP Mitch Trubisky?
But was that enough to win the Nickelodeon's Kids Electoral College?
They're still looking into it. There is currently some debate about some 'hanging Cheetos' and they're going to ask Mom and Dad to clarify some wording.
Helga Pataki* is demanding they recount Florida
*No I cannot make a more current Nickelodeon reference
It wouldn't be an electoral college in this case. It would be an electoral... middle school?
Take your upvote and leave.
Remember it's beneficial for the media when it's 50/50. Either by only promoting those stories or by skewing the numbers
48% of kids are dumb
100% of kids are dumb. So far.
While I tend to agree, the only political news I got before I was 18 came from whatever news my parents had on the TV after dinner.
I trust dumb kids more than voting American adults
By 4% though. So nearly half the kids on the street you see want trump. That’s crazy.
Scarier than the current reality of some 50-ish% of voting adults wanting Trump?
Kids can't do anything to me. But adults control the world right now.
Still, those kids can do something to you in the very near future. I’d still be worried. I was sure it would be like a 60/40 split at best. Yikes.
When Harris wins she needs to weaponize the military against the children who chose Trump. It's only fair.
Imagine the shitstorm if she would've said that instead of Trump.
Imagine the shit storm of she wasn't completely on-the-ball at every second of the campaign.
Which leads me to think she could actually be a good president if she wins 😅🤞
48% of these kids frighten me.
Nah, it's just kids parroting their parents views. I did the same thing as a child, and I'm about as far left as you can get as an adult.
