[ExI] Who has a vote that counts?

[Adrian Tymes]

I'm in California, where the Presidential vote is solidly Democratic.
Santa Clara County and Mountain View are nonpartisan races - as, IMO,
should be anything under the state level (and arguably the higher level
races too, but that's a separate debate).

Even the city races around here are rarely close.
