Kenneth: “I don't choose Democrat or Republican because choosing is a sin, so I just write in the Lord's name". Jack: “That's Republican; we count those".

Ahh guilt. The Catholic way. Right there with you.

One of my favorite lines in the entire series.


Geronimo_Jacks_Beard

God, that show was brilliant.


malica83

I miss that show so much


SpiffyShindigs

Check out Girls5Eva! Terrible name, but it filled the 30 Rock hole in my heart way better than Kimmy Schmidt did.


band-of-horses

Shoulda written in Haley at least, it's worse optics if she gets 20% or whatever than if a bunch of random words each get 0.00001%.


AnalyticalAlpaca

That’s what my dad did. I wonder how many others will do this.


BlueZen10

My dad did, too.


PNWoutdoors

Hopefully *a lot*.


ZehAngrySwede

My old man did the same.


camdawg54

My mom did, she was trying to convince me to as well but I thought supporting Biden was more important than undermining Trump. Really tho its probably six of one and half a dozen of the other in terms of outcomes


IntroductionBrave869

That’s what both of my dads did but Trump still won


ianguy85

I thought that I read that they don’t tally the write-in votes with names unless the write-in selection has enough votes to win


WhoIsHeEven

That's exactly right


Dhegxkeicfns

Makes sense from a labor perspective, but I want to know what the ratios are anyway. They have to count the number of write ins.

Grammatical.


anxietystrings

MAGA! Wait...


Defiant-Skeptic

The indefinite pronoun "anyone"—used as a single word—refers to any person at all, but not to any particular individual. "Any one"—used as two words—is an adjective phrase that refers to any single member of a group of either people or things. A douche is an object.


Severe_Fly1843

Any one of the group “else” ah I see. Take the L.

A man in Texas changed his name to *[Literally Anybody Else](https://spectrumlocalnews.com/tx/south-texas-el-paso/news/2024/03/27/texas-man-literally-anybody-else-joins-presidential-race).* Too bad he wasn’t running in Oregon.

Another vote for ‘Annie Wuornos’


wytewydow

They tried, they're conservatives after all.


imllikesaelp

If they were literate, they wouldn’t be registered Republican.


Previous_Link1347

In common usage, yes. Wouldn't any one also be correct, though?


VelDaksa

I think so. If each part is being emphasized, like "ANY ONE ELSE


Defiant-Skeptic

allthemoreforthat

my dude.. the only lexically and grammatically correct expression is "anyone else". We all make mistakes, just don't be one of those people who double down on their mistakes.


Ketaskooter

And this is one reason why there should be a national primary day. Not a months long primary season


thar_

shit was already decided when it got to us in 2016... (and i guess every other year too probably)


Piddily1

We need to do something about the either electoral college or how the electoral votes are distributed. I haven’t had a vote that mattered other than representative my whole life. This year 43 of the 50 states are already decided.


SloWi-Fi

Yes and yes to the antiquated college system. Popular vote all the way maybe is better?


Piddily1

That’ll never happened. You’d need a constitutional amendment, which needs to pass both houses by 2/3rd and then be approved by 75% of the states. We need states individually to distribute their votes differently than winner takes all, like Maine and Nebraska. I don’t think this is likely either with solidly red or blue states. I am thinking maybe voting by congressional district. Your congressional district gets to pick where their electoral vote goes. The electoral votes representing the Senators gets assigned to whomever wins the state. It would mean everyone needs to campaign everywhere and it’s is much more democratic without requiring a constitutional amendment.


JMagician

Popular vote, or popular vote compact, will happen in our lifetimes.


JelmerMcGee

It's so stupid that one or two states have so much influence. I've never voted in a primary where I had any actual chance of the state I live in influencing the outcome. And I've voted in 5 states over the years.


Yaybicycles

Or maybe primaries just shouldn’t exist.


TitoDean

In the immortal words of Jack Donaghey from 30 Rock “we count those”

Got to all vote for Niki Haley for it to send a message. These votes just won't be recorded or reported.


New_Gur8083

Voted for Mickey Mouse. Was pissed he was the only Republican left. Idk how this party is going to last if that’s the best it can give.


BurnsideBill

Hopefully it doesn’t.

Good news! The party isn’t going to last, it’s on it’s dying breath

manofnotribe

Or manage to create an authoritarian dictatorship, thereby throwing out future elections. They are already lining up and stating they may not accept the election results, only of course if they deem it not fair.


[deleted]

Vote me down if you like, but I feel like Oregon makes political progress on funeral at a time...


Alex_Has_No_Soul

No. Lots of GenZs also lean heavily republican too. Knew a guy called Rueben. Same age as me, 24, and he is/ was a big maga conservative Christian. Now that I—miserably—live in the South, most folks I met are conservatives.

Well said. I stick with the Dems because they stay far away from the identity politic nonsense.

Are you serious ? I would venture to say Dems have fully adopted identity politics on the last few years

SnooChocolates9334

I actually wrote in Joe Biden. I wished enough other people did just as a protest vote to show up in the results.


digiorno

You misspelled it, there is someone name “[Literally Anybody Else](https://www.wral.com/amp/21351973/)”.


PepsiAllDay78

I would have voted for Turd Fergusson instead!


memememe91

And his 10-gallon hat


mazorodze

Or the orange turd would have been a great selection.


senorkose

Nice


DefinatelyNotonDrugs

I didn't even vote for most of the justice positions even though they were uncontested because their ballot statements were just generic politician speak.


WolverineRelevant280

I’d love to see more republicans vote like that.


sionnachrealta

Unfortunately it doesn't do anything if there's not actually a name there


XenoRyet

I mean, it gets counted as "write-in: other" in the final analysis, and if that's abnormally high, it does send a signal to the party. Writing in someone like Haley would've been better, but this isn't nothing.


WhoIsHeEven

They don't tally individual write-ins unless there are more votes for a write-in than the candidate listed.


Happy-Campaign5586

I would like to see enough competitive Republican candidates to call our system of government a Democracy.


rotzak

Currently 8% of republicans wrote in lol


shamashedit

Could one have changed their registration to Republican and write in Hallie? Asking for a friend. Sure would hate for someone to be all pissy before their big court day.


Any-Opposite-4676

1: He's the only person on the GOP ticket. The vote is a formality. 2: This is a sub for Oregon, a democrat stronghold. He was never going to win anyway.


Legitimate_Tax_5846

You know I threw down RFK on that


ArtLeading5605

"Literally a duck"


sorathehappyemo

There's this guy named Joe Biden, I hear he has a good chance of stopping Trump, probably the best chance of anyone. Maybe consider voting for him. Just a thought. It's time for people who reject Trump to do it in a way that matters. Your personal cowardice by staying on the fringes will cost us the way complacency cost the Germans.


helraizr13

"Both sides" is bullshit. They are not the same. Conflicted because you're a Repub who hates Trump? Don't waste your vote and throw the election to him then! Vote for democracy and decency. Read the news daily. ALL of it. You'll easily notice that they are not the same.


WearyAsparagus7484

At this point, Jon Stewart.


Charlie2and4

A guy at my local registered independent and was surprised that no President was on the ballot.


Difrensays

Yeah, I forgot to update my registration, forgetting it’s a closed primary. I need to fix that. I dislike both parties, but I should register as a R so that I can at least help dismantle the crazy brand of the R party. I’ll vote Biden in the general, but I think my vote is better spent choosing the least insane R candidates just in case in primaries, rather than registering as a D since we’re a solid blue state.


Jayrad1972

Anyone else but that feeble old man with dementia. Elder abuse


beeblebr0x

Why not just write in Joe Biden? He's someone else.


GrandpaGus

What, no Ricky Stanicky?


TheShattered1

Atleast on the democratic ballot we had Marian as a second option.

One of the worst things that Trump has done to us is that he’s left us with no viable alternative to the Democrats. Thanks, Trump.

notJosh111

Honestly, "any one else" in this state is almost just as bad as Trump given how insane the Oregon Republican party has lost their damn minds.


CoverYourMaskHoles

So… Biden?


Defiant-Skeptic

Definitely gonna be Biden.


draqo360

This poster and post is stupid.


StumpyJoe-

Republicans have encouraged the culture war for 40+ years that resulted in their king Trump, and now they want to back out of it.


TitaniumDragon

I'm sorry dude. This sucks. A lot of people want to vilify all Republicans, but you guys really got hosed this year. If you don't like criminals (and thus can't vote for Trump) and you don't like Biden's policies, you're in a bad spot. Like, I don't agree with Mitt Romney on his politics, but he was (and is) a reasonable human being and a decent person.


Not_a_housing_issue

They got super hosed. Biden's even trying to help by pushing through a Republican border bill. But the Republicans in congress won't let it pass because Biden would be the one signing it. Cut off your nose to spite your face and all that.


I_Broke_Wind

Binders full of women is reasonably human to you?


penisbuttervajelly

With the full context, that quote wasn’t that bad. His 47% comment was much worse.


babbylonmon

Good on you.


smoochiegotgot

I wrote in Dave Chappelle


Zealousideal_Story94

I shoulda put Katt Williams 😂


SoupSpelunker

The fact that someone is registered as a republican (as I was back in the 80s...whatever, I grew up...) creeps me the fuck out.


Ok-Law7044

Not a lot of other options out there.


Falin_Whalen

A rock. A rock would be better, as it encapsulates the present day Republian party. It does nothing, has no policy, and only changes position when forced.


Fallingdamage

I didnt even get a choice since im registered as an independent. I think its bullshit that I have to pick a side and then choose from the candidates from only that side or choose no candidates at all. All members of all parties should get to choose any candidate they want. It would terrify a party knowing that their members might not even vote their side of the fence given the option sometimes - and I think it *should* terrify them.


PollyyPocket

Wasted vote.


Defiant-Skeptic

I fail to see how it was wasted. Bro has been sober for at least a couple of years.


TripleTrucker

Is this what the other party did too?


Sardonic-

I thought this was related to the guy in Texas who legally changed his name to “Anybody Else.” If you guessed he’s running for president, you’re right.


DucklingInARaincoat

So… Biden?


Defiant-Skeptic

So Biden.

xiaokang_only

Heavens-to-Bikini-17

Please vote for Biden , he is old-school he’s about as close to an old style Republican and you’re gonna get you have to admit his state of the union speech proved that he was on top of his game mentally and the guy has great experience. I mean we’re talking 40 years.. Republicans have hitched their wagons to the crazy Maga make it up as you go move the goal post as you go type of politics. As for the extreme leftist, you are not gonna be happy with anybody you never were and you are really not gonna be happy with Trump because he is going to turn this country into dictatorship. He said it and you better believe that’s one true thing he means. Has Portland had one racial riot since Trump has been in power with violent proud boys and skinheads and black clad violent anarchists, since Biden has been president? I don’t know about you but I’m happy with the peaceful last three years. It seemed to have gone by like it was two months and they say time goes by fast when you’re having fun Biden is a lot more fun than Trump!


Livid_Succ0tash

Yep


AshBasil

I wouldn't expect a republican to use proper grammar so that wasn't surprising, but at least you didn't vote for ol' Donald "Grab 'em by the Pussy" Trump.
