America has more independent voters than Democrats or Republicans. Are they changing American politics?
America has more independent voters than Democrats or Republicans. Are they changing American politics?
I thought I saw something about that but didn’t remember where or look further into it. I just didn’t want to register as either of the big 2. How do we link up independent voters to a new party? We don’t have to play democrat/republican in the long game if we can get enough people on board to shift the board.
I recognize this will take time and considerable effort, but I think a new party with a clean history would do this country good. Who is the outside team that’s got some momentum that we can build on? (albeit not for this prez cycle, sadly)
The way to do it is to support ranked choice and other voting systems that are not first past the post all/nothing; this would eventually lead to changing of the composition of congress over time and the two parties would have to learn how to moderate and negotiate their stances just like happens in democracies all over the world.
