Many people don’t like talking about politics, so let’s talk about apples instead.

In November, Americans are going to be making a very important decision about the best apple to represent our country.

There are many different types of apples in the running, such as Gala, and Fuji, and Granny Smith apples.

Honeycrisp is my favorite type of apple; however, we don’t have one of those in the running this year, so we need to vote for the most reasonable and responsible option from the basket.

Gala and Fuji are pretty good, but they’re newer and a lot of people have never tried them and they’re afraid of what they don’t know, so those people simply won’t vote for them due to lack of familiarity. This means that those types of apples will never get a majority of the vote to win, at least not this year.

This brings me to the Granny Smith. Sure, it’s old and average, but it’s FINE. It's already serving a term as “best” apple” and it's not doing a GREAT job, but it has proven itself to be a BETTER option than the rotten apple that preceded it.

To make matters worse, that rotten apple is back and there are a LOT of rotten people who LOVE rotten apples, so there’s a legitimate chance that the rotten apple may get a majority of the votes and actually win.

With that, I am making a desperate plea to my fellow Fuji and Gala fans. I get it. Ive all think our apples are better than a Granny Smith, but our apples can’t win, so any vote for one of those is one fewer vote for the Granny Smith, which splits the non-rotten vote and essentially makes those votes count as a vote FOR the rotten apple.

I know it feels like settling, but I genuinely hope we can recognize what needs to be done and come together to vote for Granny Smith in November because our future depends on it.
