Why are Democrats forcing this agony on people? People are just dying for the Democrats to give them a reason to support them.
The electoral system is broken. Both parties and the government are captured by corporations and beholden to their donors. They no longer serve the people, they serve their donors. I wish I had an answer as to the solution. But everything I think of ( ranked-choice, campaign finance reform, compulsory voting) will be circumvented by special-interests and lobbying.
