    Do we not? There’s plenty of time, I don’t know if there’s enough money and infrastructure, but let’s not pretend like 4 months from the election is not plenty of time. Most countries run their entire election in half that time or less. The only reason you think there’s not enough time is cuz 24 hour news media has trained you to think elections have to be two years long.

      Most countries don’t have the idiotic mess of 50 different sets of election laws and the fucking cancer that is the Republican party to deal with. We should be able to run an election with a couple of days notice, but if we tried anything like that GOP attorneys would take it to court and right wing judges would cause all sorts of chaos.
