We have the voting system that we have today, so yes, with things as they are, people do have to vote Democrat. I am not a Democrat. I'm an independent. If we had RCV or any reasonably modern system of voting in America, I'd agree with you. But we don't have that. We live in the real world, and the real world consequences of not voting Democrat are possibly the end of our democracy.
If you listened to the recently leaked Jenna Ellis video, you'd know for certain that this was Trump's intent in 2020, to stay in power regardless of what the people voted for. Things are dire right here, right now. If we don't take care of business at home, everything else falls.
