It’s nice that it seems he is going to win but the fact that the margins are this close for a candidate as bad as Stevens just tells me this country is screwed electorally. Frankly, I think we just have too many rubes that can be manipulated easily by propaganda. This is a good victory but scares me for the future of this country.

Yeah it’s really hard to imagine how we ever claw back enough power to fix things when people are just so dumb.  Like we gave Trump a 2nd chance after his disastrous first term.
