yes, hence my efforts on ranked choice in my state. regardless the choices they make in the future are their choices.

the fact is the DNC ran an incredibly unpopular candidate via harris. a candidate who has decided she'd run with the albatross around her neck that is unconditional support for israel and no pro labor policies and in fact has decided to not commit to keeping the most friendly labor FTC head in a generation. thats harris' problem; A proper primary would have resolved this issues if biden has gotten out of his own way and stayed committed to his 1 term statement in 2020 (yes I know he retroactively walked it back).

atm all harris has is 'not trump' and abortion access, access that is already protected in most states that are not deep deep red. And while I'd love for them to be enshrined, its apparently may not be enough for voters in swing states. 🤷 .

I'm crossing my fingers for the swing states but given what I'm seeing doesn't look promising. its too bad everyone was too focused on attacking people for pointing out harris' weak points instead of pressuring harris and their congressional reps to switch positions. 🤷
