We voted my sons first election he's 18.

And obviously growing up with Liz and i the child is registered democrat left leaning . Yet he researched the democratic candidates and he made his decisions. 19 would have voted yet he’s a little pre occupied at Paris Island at the moment yea he dropped out college enlisted.

And we live in rural magat cuntry them sons bitches running the state and fed Gubmint Jesus is a republican and he’s pasty white so you get the idea of the natives type of tribes we have around here.
I was just telling my neighbor last night God chose the nice Jewish boy Shapiro as governor last election. He definitely God that is did not want mastriano running the state. And my neighbors a republican the one neighbor that is and he voted Biden Harris 2020.


And our daughters three grown women reject the repig party and many of their friends do as well. Hopefully with the younger generations the republicans will be voted out.

We only had city council and mayoral elections on this ballot. The election for mayor is very important in that we have a serious housing crisis in Missoula. Homes are unaffordable for most people and one of our candidates is funded by the National Organization of Realtors. Huge concern for those of us who believe housing should be a right and not a privilege.
