Sadly, if not surprisingly, partisan support flipped in 2016, making this less ideological than tactical.

That link shows higher support (for popular vote) from Democrats than Republicans in every data point on the graph: 2000, 2011, 2016, 2019, and 2020. Partisan support has not flipped in at least 20 years.

What "flipped" is that it went from overall < 50% to > 50%.


The public's opinion is irrelevant, both parties will continue propping up systems that prevent any other competition from having a shot.


Do you really trust these polls ?
