I was thinking we were in a thread that started with:

I just spent the weekend with moderate relatives that are ready to stay home instead of voting in November because they don’t like either choice, and the debate solidified that position.

I didn’t say “moderates not voting” I said “low-information voters.”

I don’t want to argue, I mean I admit I did but that’s not really want I was intending. I think you have a valid point of view but I do not see it the way you do.

I see what you are saying and I appreciate that we are both stating our positions. I;m grateful we have a place where we can express ourselves.

You are correct that the thread started that way. I was just saying that I then reframed that as low-info voters who may or may not be moderate. Someone in another thread had talked about some leftists in California who were going t skip voting as a protest to the war in Israel – which won’t matter because California is not up for grabs.

FWIW, I watched Biden’s press conference and was once again amazed as Biden reminded us of all the things he’s done. He’s been a great statesman and exactly the kind of world leader I want our President to be, and it baffles me that so much of the population want to pick a petty know-nothing bully like Trump.
