There would be no America if it were not for the second amendment.

Unless you’re in a swing district in Queens, or in Staten Island, the result of voting GOP or anything other than Democrat is that you get called for jury duty.

I hope you're not saying that no one should vote without a strong expectation of winning.

I can attest to this. Day after the DMV I was called in for jury duty. Dirty swine! I did my time though even if I'm not a very patriotic American.

Pulling out paperwork to see when I am on the line again. I think I have a couple years yet. Jury duty really sucks, like a vacation to Hell.
I hate making up half truths to keep from getting called.

Another Republican here. I fully plan to vote and am excited to vote for the first time in NYC. Yes, I know it's like spitting into the wind but I get to walk out of that booth knowing I wasn't part of the problem. NY dodged a bullet in the Nixon/Cuomo battle. Nixon, on a fiscal level, would have been the end of NY.

Voting for GOP candidates that are Trump supporters. Not voting for swampy establishment RINOs.

So then you are happy then with the Federal deficit this year

Federal Deficit Jumps 17 Percent As Tax Cuts Eat Into Government Revenue The federal deficit ballooned to $779 billion in the fiscal year just ended — a remarkable tide of red ink for a country not mired in recession or war.

Do you know the meaning of hypocrisy?
