    As we’ve recently found out in the last few years, conservative bastions are not as solidly red as we believe. If you’re a Democrat in Idaho, fucking vote Democratic. It matters.

      Absolutely, I’m in Texas, which is considered a slam dunk for the GOP. I still voted for Allred and for Harris. If there’s a chance to get rid of Ted Cruz, I’m not going to risk it.
