    That said what matters most is the down ballot.

    100%.

    Here in Missouri we have an abortion ban and a $15 minimum wage on the ballot, so no matter who you support, your vote makes a huge difference in this election.

    At the federal level, none of us have any power, because you get presented with two flavors of the same choice, both of whom have been installed by the 0.01% and will actively work against the interests of the poor and working class; However, in your town, city, and county, you do have tremendous power for change.

          Well first we need an overwhelming blue wave so the GOP in its current form collapses. Then, as they shift back towards the center, the more progressive part of the Democrats have a better shot at winning. With these razor sharp margins, it will be a race to the center for Democrats as the GOP goes all in with crazy.

            I don’t know where you’ve been for the last 40 years, but the Democrats are not a progressive party. Look at all of the things that happened when Biden had power that they did nothing meaningful to stop: Roe repeal, cop cities, 2+ trillion for war, child genocide in Israel, rent/grocery/energy bills skyrocketing.

            You have to ask me to ignore the daily realities of my life under Joe Biden in order for me to honestly assume Kamala or Trump will do anything meaningful to help people.

              You’re either arguing in bad faith, or have no idea how the government works. I said the democrats need a blue wave since they haven’t controlled the presidency, and both houses of Congress for more than a couple months over the past decade. What did you expect Biden to do when you have a Republican controlled House and such a thin margin in the Senate?
