Re “Half of voters would consider voting third party in 2024.”
Is that half – of the half that routinely votes or is it half – of the half that routinely does NOT vote (presumably in protest against a system more resembling “bipartisan,” monolithic grift-ocracy than anything remotely related to its given name.)
It’s kind of telling … Ever since as far back as I am politically aware, it has been a downward slide each time for the middle class. Isn’t the point of democracy to make things better for the population?
