People still voting for republicans at this point will not hold their representatives to account over favoring billionaires, it’s a nothing burger as far as they’re concerned, not a the issue for the realm of politics.
Democratic voters, as this poll shows, do care and can be convinced to hold their representatives to account, if the representatives ignore it, they are liable to get primaried.
Where is the effort and attention best placed? What is most likely to produce results?

Maybe. It’s just starting to feel like a campaign to get left-leaning people to not vote, or to vote for people who won’t win (which, in our FPTP voting system, is a reality we have to face).
When it comes down to general elections, if þe race doesn’t use RCV or someþing, you have to vote strategically or you end up wiþ a Bush, or a Trump.

maybe people should vote more strategically in primaries so candidates half the parties base don’t feel like they’re voting for the lesser of two evils.
