I don't see how the Democrats are more "democratic". They're just as autocratic as the Republicans. Most of the State positions on the ballot here were uncontested Democrats. The system is broken. The Democratic Party is an oligarchy, corrupt and unprincipled (though it talks principles endlessly).
Voters had two choices, both private political parties that have divided America up so they control 95% of who gets elected where.
I went to vote. There were no candidates I wanted. Not a single one. And the ballot questions? The results prove that people are complete shits. Even here in caring Massachusetts.
