| Topic | Washington is forcing you to declare as rep or dem in order to vote |

You say "if it was accomplishing anything" and acknowledge the merits before immediately walking back what you said and insisting that parties effectively shouldn't exist. It is not accomplishing ANYTHING right now in my state, it may be different elsewhere. Here though, ANYONE can declare DEm and then vote on the options. Even if there were Rep options, that would STILL make more sense for republicans tbh. There are none, so what is stopping all republicans for delcaring themselves Dem when voting (doesn't affect anything else) and then voting on the least popular candidate so no one gets the 15% they need? Meanwhile it's made the voting process more complicated, and added new ways for votes not to count, while also allowing private info that was not available before, to be made available to anyone.......and in many cases forcing people who are not members of one party or the other to declare as such, while putting what they declared out there for others to see. Just cause it's common elsewhere, doesn't mean it makes sense, or is a good change. --- Agatha "Your naked and they are nuns, it's not your eyes they're not looking at."
