Just about to board my plane back to Birmingham. I've realised I probably won't be able to #vote as I'm going straight to a party in Brum this evening so polling stations will be closed when I get home 😕

Dear Reform voters, I know we have different opinions, but let me reach out and say. Before you go vote today, remember Farage and Tice have stated on multiple occasions they want to disband and break up the NHS, there is a reason they have billionaires giving large sums of money - and that’s not including the 5 million to Nigel personally. You had 14 years of Tory shit and now reform are full of the same people. I know Labour and the rest are a fucking disaster and you want something different- but a new Tory party built for and owned by the rich isn’t different. #politics #toryscum #tories #conservatives #ukpolitics #bbc #news #EU #Labour #keirstarmer #Starmer #labourparty #RejoinEU #ReformUK #farage #nigelfarage #immigration #farageisalyingsackshit #ReformAreUseless #farageisaracist #farageisatraitor #vote #LocalElection #elections #localelections #localelections2026

There are many problems with #USA #democracy Like the stupid #ElectoralCollege Gore beat Bush in 2000, Clinton beat Trump in 2016. In the popular vote. The EC erased it Well here's another reason for you to #vote in the #primaries and the general #election: The #Democrats, if they win enough in November, can kill the EC It's been a 20 year effort of states agreeing to void the EC if enough agree: the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact https://www.vox.com/politics/487766/national-popular-vote-interstate-compact-electoral-college https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Popular_Vote_Interstate_Compact

Investigators found that leaders of a prison gang in Puerto Rico were selling inmates drugs in exchange for voting for Gov. Jenniffer González-Colón, a longtime Republican. After Trump’s election, prosecutors were told not to pursue charges. https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-doj-puerto-rico-election-fraud-prison-drugs-votes?utm_source=mastodon&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=mastodon-post #News #PuertoRico #USPolitics #Law #Legal #Fraud #Election #Prison #Vote

@ErikUden@mastodon.de the #democrats fucking suck but remember: we're stuck in 2 party because we are a shitty #FPTP voting system 3rd party in our system divides the left #vote and helps #MAGA win (we can fix that with ranked choice voting... that's a whole other post) so we are stuck with one way forward: take over the democrats how? we have #primaries coming up and this is your chance to replace your spineless #democrat turd rep with a real leftist mob the primaries what did #mamdani teach us?

Most major #media and #socialMedia in the #USA is now right wing controlled The #techbro angle is well understood, but traditional media, that used to be more balanced, being capitalist entities that were dying, plutocrats merely purchased them and put their goons on the managing editor desks Watch this video of Peter #Magyar going on #Hungary's version of #FoxNews (their state media) and announcing he is shutting them down Now dream of that in the #US To get there, you fucking #vote, idiots

@benroyce@mastodon.social The chance that any Democrat will vote for a left-leaning legislation than any GOP member. Therefore, voting for a Democrat, even if they aren't left-leaning, creates a more left-leaning legislature. Voting in primaries is how you pick your candidate, once at the general, vote Democratic, regardless of issues you may have with that candidate. We can resolve those over time at the next election. Vote, vote, vote, vote! #Vote #Democratic #VoteBlue

#DrKing articulated a philosophy that would guide the entire Civil Rights Movement: #Justice and #love are not opposites but partners. He told the assembled crowd, “It is not enough for us to talk about love … There is another side called justice. And justice is really love in calculation.” #law #vote #election2026 #2026election #NoKings

@QasimRashid@mastodon.social Qasim is right about the #DemocraticParty establishment But I want to underline an important point: "I won't #vote until centrist #Democrats magically turn left" is not a coherent position What you do is you vote, in the #primaries, and replace them They won't change. *You* have to vote Not voting merely means they get worse, and #MAGA wins Low voter turnout from the left helped them become as they are today You have to vote IN THE PRIMARIES What did #Mamdani teach us?

Who always votes in elections including locally in elections? Extremists and loons. If you don't want your are ruined by extremists, loons, ReformUK then get out and vote. Most people don't seem to know who runs their local council even though they making importance decisions over our daily lives. Now is the time to give a damn about your area and make sure the wrong people don't get control. #ReformUK #localelections #elections #vote #votelocalelections

@RegGuy@mstdn.social i'm trying to think of a sentiment that would disagree with you and i see only the fucking #toxicidealism losers who are fine with rising #fascism: they only make excuses to do nothing or the right wing trolls cosplaying left to work a helplessness #psyop on idiots who call themselves left, but aren't really because their primary concern is their high holy sense of self-regard: to sit things out and judge from an ivory tower while their world goes to hell they don't care #vote

If you are a US citizen and plan to vote, now is the time to get a passport. A copy of your US birth certificate is a good idea too. Or, you might not be able to register and #vote. #elections #USelections https://apnews.com/article/save-act-documents-requirements-citizenship-voting-congress-dfb43bcdd0255d3665da588a60286b4e?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-ca

“Arrogant Israel spouts debunked lies to demand Greens drop anti-Zionist motion” by Skwawkbox with The Canary @uk_politics @thecanaryuk@independent-media.co.uk “The official Israeli embassy ‘X’ account, with the colony’s typical arrogance, has publicly demanded the UK Green party drop its anti-Zionist motion. The party’s conference will debate and vote on a motion that accurately describes Zionism as racism. It will also affirm support for the Palestinians’ legally-guaranteed right to resist Israel’s occupation by ‘any available means’.” https://www.thecanary.co/skwawkbox/2026/02/26/israel-spouts-debunked-lies/ #Press #SocialMedia #UK #GreenParty #Vote #AntiZionism #PalestinianGenocide #Gaza #Genocide #Resistance #Israel

"#Hungary's opposition #Tisza party widens its lead ahead of #Orban's #Fidesz" 🤞 🤞 🤞 If Hungary goes sane in April, and then if enough of the lazy entitled lumps in the #USA show up to #vote in November (after showing up in the #primaries to get real left candidates: BE THERE), then we can put a real dent on our emergent #fascism Fuck your #cynicism VOTE Let's do this, "degenerate Westoids" 🤭
