You'd think that after the 2000 election debacle, heads would have rolled and Florida's voting system would have been improved.
The old adage "vote early and vote often" seems apt here, or should it be "no taxation without representation"?
Four years on, and Florida votes still unreliable
Russ and Joi want us foreign bloggers to start leaning into it a bit more over the US presidential election, so here's my angle.
Am I too late? I don't know, maybe American voters are experiencing candidate and election fatigue, I can certainly understand that, as I'm no lover of politicians of any type.
However, I'm going to post a few items here over the next month or so, posing a few questions about the US presidential election. All I'm asking is that the American voters who read this blog take a tiny slice of their time to read these items and ponder them.
Sure, you might think some of these will be rants from a Limey who has no business poking his nose into US politics, but I hope that my readers are open minded and responsible enough to realise that US politics casts its influence and actions over the rest of planet too.
With power comes responsibilty, US voters have the power to elect the right guy, and as a disenfranchised observer, I'd like to think that US voters will be responsible in using their vote. Well, I can hope, can't I?
