“elections allowed independants and CROSSOVER DIMS. And by then, it was over, a done deal, ship it. Ninety-five percent of our electorate had no say.”

Here in lays our biggest problem. Which seems to be over looked by the infighting. Laws need to be changed as soon as possible to prevent a repeat. (I am one of the 95% that didn’t get my vote heard since the primary hasn’t happened yet in my state.)

We may not have the same end voting plan on this election but I hope All conservatives will join together and fight for our right to our Freedoms.

“Laws need to be changed as soon as possible to prevent a repeat.”

It gets worse, here in the Pacific Northwest.

Stupid Washington voters just enacted a law that says the top two vote-getters go to the ballot, the parties appealed it, and the Supreme Court said it’s fine as it’s written.

Stupid oregon wants to adopt that same law. They say it allows more centrist applicants to political office.

The result will be, though, that in race after race, instead of the two candidates on tha ballot being members of different parties, reflecting differing political stances, the two most popular names will be listed instead, meaning that in most races the candidates will be two liberal Democrats and NO Republicans, no conservatives!

It’s absurd...they may as well just give the election to the liberals and skip the expense of printing ballots.
