Meanwhile, all 435 seats in the House of Representatives and 34 of the 100 seats in the Senate are up for grabs in November.
Those elections are at least as important, arguably more important than the presidential election.
The powers-that-be are perfectly happy for those races to be overlooked. The less voters know about who's running, the more likely they are to vote for the name they recognize and the name they recognize is usually the incumbent.
A vote for Clinton is a vote for the status quo, for politics as usual; both of which the career politicians privately embrace no matter what they say for public consumption.
A vote for Trump is a vote for uncertainty, for challenging the established power structure; both of which terrify career politicians.
An uninformed vote for Representative and Senator is almost criminal.
Please note that I have not differentiated between Republican and Democrat.
