      Maybe democrats want to lose. Why else would they not invite 3rd parties to participate of equal footing. Why would they say no to multiple chances at beating the republicans? Why would they say no to increased voter participation and the free votes that come along side that.

      Where is the urgency during the election? Where is the urgency now? Do they not believe what they’ve been saying about the republicans this whole time?

        3rd parties cannibalize votes from which ever majority party it aligns closest with. That’s the problem with our system. Your comment makes no sense I’m the context of current voting rules.

        Ranked choice voting would help immensely and then your tongue in cheek rhetorical questions would make sense, but until then the answer is obvious. The Dems don’t want that because it takes votes from them.
