Calling people's reasons for voting stupid isn't helping, it's also stupid. Disagree and give your reasons for voting.

I did.
I clearly said that voting based on partisan bs is a terrible reason for voting. Same with voting based on how you think someone acts when actually have never had a conversation with the person. I don't think there's anything wrong with saying that using either of those as the basis for your vote is dumb. You're free to do so, just like I'm free to say that it's dumb.
I base my vote on which candidates agenda most lines up with what I'd like to see. Educated and well spoken, Fiscally conservative but realistic when it comes to using tax to fund programs, Socially progressive, Desire to bring in business but not bend over to their will and when it comes to municipal politics, it helps if they value art and culture cause I want to live in a place that is enjoyable to be in.
Pretty straight forward.
