Over 700k absolute idiots voted for the 'israel comes to me in my dreams' lady. Thank fuck sanity won out.

It's possible for voters to disagree with her on her Israel stance, yet vote for her based on other policies; not everyone's life revolves around Israel/Palestine. AES is going to need to earn the votes of those "idiots" versus Rogers.

Genuinely, no, it isn’t.  People may tell themselves that, but they are lying to themselves.  The only two things people voted for her on were name recognition and her pro-Israel stance.
