GreyGhost85 Report post Posted October 30, 2020 Read something yesterday that said that only 30% of hunters vote. There are supposedly 11.5 million of us in the US and a LOT of those numbers are in swing states. This is disappointing. Get out there and vote people. AZ is a big swing state this year. If the number of hunters that voted was up in the national average, it would really help us all. Crazy that a group of people with so much to lose due to our interests has such a small showing at the ballots. I'm sure some of this has to do with it falling smack-dab in hunting season but that isn't an excuse. 15 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I’m not that surprised. 8 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spend a few hrs on cwt and you will see that 90% of these guys fall in the retard percentile. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
