What a clusterfuck that would be.
The Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives need not be an elected member of the U.S. House of Representatives. As such, Paul Nehlen -- Paul Ryan's Republican primary opponent for Wisconsin's second congressional district, who lost said primary election -- has put his own name into consideration.
Governor Kate Brown, whatever you think of her personally (especially as State Secretary), has turned Oregon into a progressive laboratory similar to Colorado, if not more so. This includes automatic voter registration, phasing out coal-fired power plants, passing mandatory background checks, and enacting paid sick leave as well as banning employers from asking about workers' (or recruits') criminal history.

So according to Democrats on the OTC, and Clinton supporters at that, prosecuting war criminals is bad.
All of them are Republicans. One, Charles T. Cannady, was on Trump's short list for Supreme Court. If anyone lives in Florida, vote "no" on each of them, but especially Cannady.
The game itself really doesn't spare anyone. The protag constantly forgets Kasich's name, Carson dozes off constantly, Jeb gets bullied relentlessly, Rand is tiny and Rubio falls into repeating the same lines when he's nervous.
Also, I am told the Klan issued an official statement that they are backing Trump.
Gimme a moment to explain this.
The Democrat running for Florida State Senate District 32 is named Lauren Book. (She is the only candidate running for this seat, so is basically guaranteed to win by default.)
If you look up her name in Google, you'll get pointed to a portrait of an older woman with dark hair and a frown.
If you look up her campaign website, you'll find a young-ish-to-middle-aged woman with blond hair. (And a smile, because that's a campaign website, of course.)
If you look at her bio on her campaign site, it reads as follows:
Turns out...

Google shows Ms. Flores's picture when I search for Ms. Book's name.
Really now.

That's Trump and the seven broken guardrails of democracy
One thing I'm concerned about is that if these justices are voted out -- and these are all Charlie Crist appointments -- they'll be replaced by Rick Scott appointments.
I don't know about the appointees themselves but Rick Scott is rather obviously strictly worse than Charlie Crist.
They specifically flamed one of the FL Supreme Court justices for helping out Obamacare, and praised the other two for being "conservative".
I decided to do exactly the opposite of what they recommended.
Also picked some county judges in their nonpartisan runoffs by contradicting them too. Lol, so long and thanks for all the suggestions.
Oddly enough, the Democratic recommended ballot had no opinions on the justices. Meanwhile, the Repub recommended ballot had recommendations on some county questions but not the state constitutional amendments, while the Dem recommended No on 1 (against subsidizing solar) and Yes on 2 (expanding medical marijuana), and no county initiative recommendations.
"Charles T. Canady - Vote Yes, Conservative Judge"
"Jorge Labarga - Vote No, Has made liberal decision not allowing Florida voters to vote on Obamacare"
"Ricky L. Polston - Vote Yes, Conservative Judge"
Their blatantly tribalistic labeling people "conservative" as a stamp of approval and "liberal" as an insult screamed at me to run with No Yes No.
Thanks for the help!
So I'm just gonna copy-paste a message I left on another board.
If you haven't voted early, or if your state doesn't offer early voting,
today (November 8, 2016) is Election Day in the United States.
For election-day voting, you will need to vote at your polling place. Find out its location and hours here: http://www.vote411.org/
You can also see what races will be on the ballot and see the candidates' profiles on that site, as well as on https://ballotpedia.org/ .
If
you are still undecided on who to vote for for the presidency, here are
a couple entertaining videos from John Oliver on the subject.

Of
course, there are many other races other than the presidency to vote
on. My ballot had US Senate, US House, state senate, state house,
county officials, state constitutional amendments, local initiatives,
and statewide and district judges. Don't forget to place your vote in
them; Ballotpedia and Vote411 can help you get information on them.
