Electoralism is working because idiots like you keep telling libs to not vote.
Well this is just not true. Electoralism doesn’t work for quite a few reasons, including but not limited to:
-
First past the post is a terrible way to run an election.
-
Single member districts will always lead to outcomes that are bad for minorities.
-
The political “left” (the Democrats) are clearly not left at all and would rather work with Republicans than help people.
-
There are fewer polling places in poor, minority, or student neighborhoods, making it harder to vote if you’re any of those things.
-
Partisan gerrymandering is a thing, and the Democrats never use it for good, even though they could.
-
The Democrats go out of their way to ensure that progressives don’t win primaries, meaning the general election is usually between a ghoulish Republican and (at best) a useless “moderate”.
