40. If you don't live in Minnesota, you can't vote for or against Franken.

Sorry if that fact bothers you. You are welcome to your opinion, but it clearly doesn't matter towards electing a Minnesota politician.

Provincial? Do you understand how State elections work? Or are you advocating for voter fraud?

I think Roy Moore is a slimey asshole, but I can't vote against him. My opinion doesn't mean anything towards his chance of being Senator. If one doesn't live in Minnesota, your opinion doesn't matter towards Franken being a Minnesota Senator.

If you choose, go ahead and send money to the GOP to campaign against Franken in 2020. Your opportunity to do that in 2014 has long expired.
