    MAGA is no longer a winning platform, that’s why there was no ‘red wave’ in 2022. Truthfully, the solution would be RCV, but that would reduce the established power from both parties, so established politicians on both sides would vote against it in Boebert’s district (Colorado passed a bill in 2021 allowing RCV in counties and municipalities). I live in Minnesota, a solidly purple state (despite the presidential voting record). With a one senator majority lead, the Democratic-Farmer-Labor party very likely secured the next election for themselves. How? By passing 30 progressive bills that have 70%+ statewide support, like a public healthcare option, legal cannabis, guaranteed paid sick time, bans on corporate ownership of single family homes, and more. This is how we win, not “vote for me, I’m not her”
