Me too. It's weird. I never imagined that I would be actively donating money to a political campaign, because I never really liked any one candidate this much before.

That's true. We vote for the party here, and they pick who is going to sit in those seats that they win. However, there is a little "write-in" area on the ballots where if you REALLY don't want a particular person to sit in that particular seat, then you can cross their name off the list and write in another name. So there is some room for adjustment, but most people don't bother.
