There is no reason to consider one’s political party in local elections, if they are even a part of one, in local elections. Large social and economic issues simply do not matter for small positions such as city council or mayor. If you’re part of a large city such as NYC then sure but the vast majority of us aren’t. By the way, this only applies to the US because of our “wonderful” 2 party system.

    Well in that case I should just vote straight-ticket Republican. I’ve always voted a mix of Democrat and Republican on local levels (since I’ve always voted for the best person for the job), but clearly that’s not wise if I want to achieve my political goals.

      If you vote for any Republicans, that’s speaks volumes to the kind of dipshit you are and the amount of corruption you are actively supporting. As an American, I say fuck off, treasonous scum.
