Non US Election Zone?

3 points| IndySun | 5 years ago

I can't help noticing not a hint of election connected news here. I wasn't around for the last US election so maybe it's just the way it goes here.

Or it is not of any significance to my fellow readers?

Quite refreshing, and some respite, actually.

I've seen posts about the election on here. Mostly concerning legalization of drugs. I don't think they were flagged. I guess "new or interesting" can be subjective.
