I knocked on countless doors and spoke to thousands of people.

No, you didn't.

Definitely not on your door. Lol.

That's because I don't live in your hospice.

Right, you live in your parent’s basement.

(Bad post. Deleted. Had to do a redo. That's what I get for doing this crap while I'm tired. Oh well. Take two.)

Shasta County.

And that's pretty much the crux of it. It's a heavily red county.

Here's the midterm results.

About 181k total population. After minors and convicts, it's about 137k eligible voters.

Granted it's a heavily republican county and it's hard to say how much the 18% of the non voting population could impact things. However considering that only 61% of registered voters voted, it's fair to say that the 39% + the 18% could well have an effect.

Even in a heavily red county.

Sick burn!

Sick burn!

Don't kid about that...

...those can be very dangerous for hospice patients.
