Have I mentioned how much I hate gerrymandering?

(By the way, can we take as given that my opinion on the subject is "Bad when done by Republicans, bad when done by Democrats, good if we can all manage to give it up, but unilateral disarmament is probably a bad idea as it benefits the crooks in charge."?)

Other than the Presidency, there were no contested offices on my local ballot, and, as you say, for the vast majority of offices the ballot was blank. It was like "voting" in the Soviet Union, save that even the solo candidates won't win.

I don't care for the Republicans anymore than I care for the Democrats, but dammit, I wish they'd at least try. We really need a loyal opposition.
