..that was not directed at you. I just went off on a stream of consciousness rant about the 8-10 million 2020 Biden voters who stayed home, voted 3rd party, or pulled the lever for the Orange felon. Republicans seem to understand the "binary choice" thing better than Democrats. They vote R-no matter who is on the ballot (as we have witnessed the last 9 years). Sorry, not meant to be directed at you at all!
