    So do you think abstaining or protest voting 3rd party made them take it seriously? Did they change their tune when they lost? Do you honestly think the country is better for Trump beating Harris?

    I’m not saying the DNC is flawless; I think it needs to go down in flames. But I’m also not stupid and understand the concept of prioritization.

      The only way to actually reform the DNC is to elect an outsider even if they are more likely to lose the general election.

            Then I agree with you. The primaries are where the stand should take place, but after that you’re stuck with two viable options.

              I think in most part that’s correct unless a party hits below 25% polling for some reason (at that point its actually a good idea to support third parties). I also think we should make more efforts to get some sort of proportional voting system to replace the current, shitty first past the post system.
