    If as many people who turned up to vote would turn up to protest, things would change. Alas, liberals who think filling out the ballot is enough democracy for 4 years are not friends of democracy.

      Of course liberals arent friends of democracy.

      Liberals refuse to replace First past the post voting with a more representative electoral system in the blue states they control. You can see them here, in this thread, circlejerking over the fact that people are unrepresented by their options at the polls.

      We will most likely be using FPTP voting for the mid terms, and these same blue conservatives will be howling about 3rd parties existing. All while doing nothing to fix the spoiler effect that is inherent in the mathematically flawed voting system most states use.
