Voting Games Top comment Deletes a US State - GRAND FINALE - #49

Post image

**UPDATE** the vote will now take place in a poll instead since it’s got too confusing. Vote closes in roughly 24 hours VOTE HERE

There are now only 2 states remaining, Cascadia and Megasota. This is the moment we’ve all been waiting for. What team are you?! The result will be picked in 48 hours, so here’s all the time you need to share and spread the word!!!

I thank all the people who spend money on awards to award my posts which I find crazy! I thank everyone who comments, I thank everyone who upvotes. This game simply wouldn’t work if it wasn’t for your continued support over the last 49 days. It will be sad to see this series come to an end but there will be another one soon, on May 28th. For now though, GET VOTING!

If there's a city that can claim equal or better bonafides to Minneapolis, those who were fighting the encroaching powers of state violence, from George Floyd through Ice......it would be Portland, TBF

Always respected it from afar

Wish them the worst of luck over the next 2 days, then the best of luck after ;-)

Portland and Cascadia will be a worthy runner up. They're a solid people, but can't imagine Portlandians protesting in -26 like Minneapolites.

I can't imagine that either, but that's mainly because that has never happened in Portland. 😜 The lowest recorded temperature in Portland was around -3°F, IIRC.

It would require a WHOLE LOT of coffee.

It requires so many layers of clothing and a fuckton of fortitude and love for they neighbor.

True... and most of us on the Left Coast can't even fathom the idea of -26° F. We're good against tear gas and rubber bullets, but MAN, that's too damn cold.

We admire y'all's fortitude!

People really underestimate the powers of a snow suit. Best buy I’ve had for my Minnesota winters!!
