It isnt first past the post. It is bourgeois democracy. Things would be the same if there was one party or twenty so long as the bourgeoisie own the state.
I did, AND because my city does ranked choice voting, I got to pick someone for my first choice that I actually like. She probably won't win, but it's not dangerous for me to vote for her!
I think the yanks are having some sort of election, it usually is around Cup Day. They don't have compulsory voting like us, so it's a bit different attitudewise.
Yep, we usually have an election the first or second Tuesday of every November. On the one hand it sucks that more of us don't vote, but on the other hand I'd rather that people who get a ballot and just pick whatever name sounds better not do that
