    I guess you’re right. It’s just so damn important to them and their families… I have been there, super exhausted from all that, but I knew the risk of not being informed about who I’m voting for. I guess it was enough for me to make sure I knew, but not for others.

      I’m definitely not saying you should blame yourself for not phone banking or door knocking enough or something.

      The system that we live in is just perfect for making us feel like this. And the people in charge are not incentivized to change it for us.

      The only way we fix it is by trying to make things better locally, from the bottom up.
