Comment on Does voting for Biden change anything if I live in a deep red area of my state? (Ohio)

Elections aren’t just about the President. That’s arguably the least impactful person on the ballot. Look at your local reps running for state positions, find ones you like, they’ll have much more impact on your daily life.

Plus, it’s a good opportunity to pay a little closer attention to local politics. My town is getting pretty hot the last few years, with some major controversies

siting for a new high school, with hundreds of millions in state and federal funding at stake, and a huge impact on the community for the next half century. They’re racing to open it in time for the coming school year, but the site is still controversial

summer closure to vehicles of the shops and restaurant area was a huge hit during COViD period, but now some people want to “go back to normal”

the town we bought contaminated land for Pennies but trying to figure out what to do with it means figuring out how to clean it up

we have a great sports facility with a large number of astroturfed fields but “the carpet is scuffed and worn”. Can we afford to get it re-carpeted? Is there an advantage to going back to grass?
