A little while back, my hometown’s mayoral election was decided by a difference of just 5 votes. Unfortunately, the candidate I didn’t like won the election. I didn’t live there anymore and wasn’t able to vote, but it really showed me the importance of voting at all levels of government.
“My child, I will only be dictator on day one.”
Aah I see. So what’s for day 2, Queen? Emperor? God?
My child….
This reminds me of my favorite blurb I’ve found while browsing Memory Alpha:
Although the writing staff of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine had spent almost the entirety of the show’s second season planning to make Bareil the new kai, electing Winn to that position was a last-minute decision. “We were all sitting in the room,” recalled Robert Hewitt Wolfe, “and it occurred to us, ‘God, we could […] make Winn the kai. That’s a scary idea!’”
Outside state-level things, it really doesn’t.
Although, here in Missouri, an abortion ban, a $15 minimum wage, and a Republican candidate for governor who would refuse to implement both if passed are all on the ballot, so yes, GTFO and vote.
Ey! Fistbump Also BS anti-ranked choice measure in STL.
Oh yeah.
Super deceptive stuff. I voted against it. Hopefully everyone will.
It’s only a $13 minimum wage, because $15 we already voted for got shot down by the state congress.
Kira would be at the polls early for a chance to vote that broad out.
She would be in charge of poll security
Every vote counts!
Technically two votes would matter. Because in this scenario, your vote would’ve led to a tie. So you’d need someone else to break the tie.
Did you say break the Kai?
No ranked-choice voting on Bajor, it seems.
True, but even if it comes down to a coin toss, there’s still a chance we’d have had Kai Bareil.
And then someone killed him.
I just would like to point out that the US will be fine in the long run regardless of the results.
Becoming worked up or even violent over a presidential election is not a good idea.
Hahahaha sure
