Niche? I thought it was an idea the entire Dem group was putting forth legislation on
There’s a difference between the Democratic base and the Democratic Party politicians who make decisions. RCV is somewhat popular among the Democratic Party politicians, it’s basically unknown of/uncared about by the base. That’s how it’s both niche, and desired by the Party. I’m sure you knew this though.
Yes, Dems should take time during campaigns to talk about actual policy. That’s what campaigns are for.
That’s what they do. Literally every single election.
99% of status quo talking points are boring because our representatives are bad at their jobs.
No they’re boring to you, because they’re not meant to appeal to you, you do not represent the majority of the Democratic base, the Democratic base is mostly middle aged college educated liberals, not hyper-online leftists.
Ignorant American here, is that not what the Green Party is supposed to be? Is there a reason why Corbyn and the left wing labor/independent MP’s shouldn’t just join the Greens?
Really? You think the Democrats should be spending valuable time in an election year talking about a niche electoral reform that most people would need explained?
There’s a reason 99% of political rhetoric revolves around bread and butter issues or something that can be used to scare people. RCV is neither of those, and most people who are actually dedicated to getting RCV already know about FairVote and the Democratic party’s willingness to pass RCV.
It found “no evidence” of Hawaii officials making preparations for the wildfire, despite days of warnings that critical fire weather was coming, and that the lack of planning hindered efforts to evacuate Lahaina before it burned.
Having personally experienced a wildfire almost the exact same as this, I really really hope the people of this town can get some accountability, my town barely hit national news and got zero accountability for the failures of the city government.
