    Looks like the headline is just clickbait anyways, author doesn’t make any suggestions to hold anybody accountable. I’ve got a plan: lets get as many primary voters as we do general election voters.

      The one silver lining here is that there will be a primary in 2028. And in 2026.

      Get ready now. If you’re in a closed primary state, you need to register as a democrat to participate. If you don’t like voting for the lesser evil, getting off your ass and voting in every primary is the bare minimum you can do. You can do more by phone banking, volunteering, and educating your peers in real time as shit spirals in tangible ways over the next 2 years.

        No thanks, Dems have proven they don’t care about primaries. They don’t care about the working class. They don’t care about solving problems or even preventing fascism.

        So they’re a failure of a party, one that has no democratic route to being fixed.

        Vote third party. Down ballot, up ballot, everywhere. People forget we had fptp and a similar duopoly when the Republican party was invented, that broke the duopoly and formed a new one. It’s not an excuse.
