I love it that you used the word "herb." So appropriate.

Joke candidate seeking joke votes from suckers like the OP.

We live in a one-party state without a competitive general election. All the general election votes are joke votes. The only statement one can make is to eother guve Bowser 90% of the votes or 70%. The general election itself is a joke.

I'm voting for Red because we need open primaries and competition.

We need competitive candidates too. Robert White was the closest. Open primaries wouldn't have made a difference. Republican and libertarian candidates don't have a chance in DC.

Open primaries can result in 2 Democratic candidates for the general.

You think Robert White would beat Bowser in a head to head?

I don't know and don't care because it's moot. I just want a real choice. Our current system prevents better candidates from running because the election is decided in June by a plurality of the intraparty vote.

If there is one thing that a Republican congressional majority would impose upon DC it is a better voting system. The current model benefits no one except incumbents and those incumbents are using all sorts of nonsense - like trying to argue that ranked choice voting is racist - to forestall a move to a system that ensure that electoral outcomes actually reflect voter preferences. I’d prefer ranked choice voting, but even open primaries would be a massive improvement over what we currently have.

Republicans are doing their best to hinder people like us from voting. If they have their way they'll just start dictating laws by a-holes who have no real stake in the district.

I know him personally and his wife. He’s a very nice guy, but won’t be mayor anytime soon. Maybe council would be more realistic.

Wife and I just voted for Grant. Not expecting him to win, but the Mayor has been not very good, especially lately.
