@ManyRoads are you therefore a #Republican? * 'Because of the two party system, or do you think neither party is any good, (which they are, seen by the quiët and mild #opposition of the #Democrats in #congress)? US elections are mathematically complicated! German and UK are too, BTW. Dutch elections are much more simple to understand because of the #proportionalrepresentation
( * You don't have to answer if you don't wanna )
@feike There are many more than two political parties in the US. The two largest and most influential are Democrats & Republicans. I am an independent Voter.

@ManyRoads I know there are more parties, but, that's why I say mathematical complex:
Example:
Party A is for coffee with sugar, but without milk
Party B is for coffee with milk, but without sugar
Party C is against all coffee.
Election results:
A 30%
B 30%
C 40%
C wins, but a compromise between A and B would satisfy 60% of all voters instead of just 40%.
That demonstrates the mathematical complexity I think
@ManyRoads so how do you manage to make you vote count even with these complexities?
The past election you could vote for
The president, and the vice president,
But also the house of reps and the senate, right?
So, how did you make your voice be heard the best possible way?
