Ahh that is my bad. I see stuff like this so much but legitimately that I honestly didn't give it a second thought.

When I first saw a sign saying to "Vote No on 3" I really didn't understand its talking points. I read "No CRT in the Constitution!" and thought they were talking about something like CBD, haha. It was only reading here on this sub on election day did it finally hit me what the sign was talking about. It was so far removed from reality conceptually and off-topic my brain just didn't put it together.

I didn't see any of those but I absolutely do not doubt it here. Hell those people were protesting that Planned Parenthood for a while after it was closed down. I don't honestly have a lot of hope in strangers here lol. Weirdly enough as red as Springfield seems to vote all I've met are left leaning people in this city, so maybe i should start giving people the benefit of the doubt.

I've got a neighbor with crappy politics who puts signs up of the worst-of-the-worst. I take a look at what he's advertising, and basically vote the opposite.

Even after Todd Akin made the "legitimate rape" comment, my neighbor kept the guy's sign up. The real kicker is that he's an ER doc living in a million dollar home. He should know better...but nope. Trashy.
