Almost 40,000 people registered to vote in the 48 hours after President Biden announced he was suspending his reelection campaign and endorsing Vice President Harris, Vote.org said.
Vote.org said 38,500 new voters registered, representing the largest number of registrations in a 48-hour period this election cycle.
Of the new voter registrations, 83 percent were from people aged 18-34, according to the voting registration nonprofit group.
So good news and all, and I guess we kinda already know this, but this also means there are at least 40k fucking morons out there…
If I’m to be polite I should probably say “politically uninformed.” But seriously wtf? They’d sit back and take fascism if it were old man vs old man, but now it’s time to vote because one old man is out?
People are like that sometimes.
Unless you want to take the conservative approach of attempting to eliminate anyone who stands against you, then you unfortunately have to learn to understand and work with these people. We do not exist on our own. We exist with many, many other people who have different views than our own, who react and think differently than we do.
Part of life is learning how to work with these people, how to get them to do what needs to be done. You can sit there and scream at them for being stupid or you can figure out how to get them to do what you want.
Yeah I was fucking in the trenches arguing with people that picking one of the old white guys was better than the racist, unhinged facist who sells state secrets and actively works against the interests of everyone who isn’t a billionaire or Russian…crazy that it’s like that.
Motivation is a big factor. Don’t forget, humans are generally lazy when not otherwise driven. And let’s be honest, Joe’s about as motivational as an afternoon nap. This just gave those unregistered people the luck in the ass they needed to get it done. Considering that like what, only 40% of the population? or something actually votes, finding a way to motivate some of those non-voters is a big deal.
I’m motivated AF to take an afternoon nap, but I’m glad Joe’s out.
Maybe some of them were planning to register anyway, and this was just the catalyst.
You know, calling people morons because they don’t like your candidate is why people don’t like the Democrats.
It’s about literal dictatorship vs same old b.s. it’s not about “like my candidate or you’re an idiot!” I wasn’t even a fan of Biden.
They weren’t voting for Trump, they just weren’t voting at all which is why I say they’re stupid given the current circumstances…
You think that’s why they call you morons? It’s not because you’re Republicans it’s because you believe obvious misinformation and are easily suckered.
You guys are literally trying to deposit gold trump bucks in ATMs… Most blue states average IQ is above most red states. Studies have proven time and again conservatives are reactionary fear driven people.
I’m not a Republican, genius.
