california election results prove once again that democracy is just a popularity contest for people who still use Facebook.
AITA for thinking that the multi-million dollar campaigns and 24/7 news coverage were just a really expensive way to find out that the guy with the most yard signs won? TL;DR: We spent billions to learn that the person who promised free stuff and bold slogans is now in charge of traffic, housing, and wildfires. I, for one, am shocked—shocked!—to discover that the results show voters overwhelmingly chose the candidate with the most charisma and least detailed platform. Enjoy those I-5 gridlocks, folks. 💀🔥🚗
