    Exactly. Briton just had an entire election in 6 weeks!
    Imagine, only 6 weeks for an entire campaign ‘season’!
    Glorious

      Sorry, bro. I was being sarcastic. As much as I’d love what you’re putting down I absolutely do not think Americans are capable of anything like that

      Most Americans can barely read. That’s where we’re at, over here

      Then again, Britain is how many times smaller than the USA with how many times less electors and how many times less subdivisions in the country?

        India is roughly a billion people; The largest democracy in the world. I think they get it all done in 3 months. They also just had an election this year.

        The US is kinda unique, having years long presedental campaigns. It’s crazy, and complety, unnecessarily, excessive.

        There’s no reason for it, beyond driving donations for parties, and ratings for news networks.

        But it’s the insanity we have. The insanity we’ve gotten used to.
