This is less about “democracy”. But more about the state building systems to undermine democracy and concentrate power.

It’s a sad state for sure that at the national level, the only thing third parties are good for is losing. But it’s just a fact of the systems that have been built. Ranked choice is a good thing regardless. But we really need to do away with or heavily reign in any office at the level of an entire state or higher. State governor, or federal Senate. Even the federal house honestly. And they’re should be no presidents to flirt with this unitary executive fascist bullshit. If we are to elect for offices, we need them to stay connected and answerable.
