[ExI] Who has a vote that counts?

[Dan TheBookMan]

I believe what you meant to point out is that Nebraska has an officially nonpartisan legislature. (Yeah, it’s unicameral, but that only means it has one chamber — not that it has one or no parties.)

We have the Great Barrier Reef to the east, the protected Daintree Rainforest north, and rainforest everywhere else around us, and the local council does not give any fucks about the endangered wildlife that live in our areas. So I vote Greens purely so there is some fight in councils and parliament against doing anything that is going to drive our endangered animals towards extinction. Without them, our politicians would go unchecked and everything would die or be destroyed.
