Why would people vote for Republican Lite, if there's the real deal? At least now we know chasing these Republican votes was foolish and that we should campaign on universal leftist points. Right? Right???

No, it's the voters who are wrong. FPTP requires us to vote for people in favor of FPTP.

I WAS going to do SO MUCH organizing this time... if Harris had bought us time. But alas, all strikes will go to Trump's desk now so why even bother. /s

Even the referendum efforts slammed into a brick wall this year

RCV failed in Missouri, Colorado, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon, Idaho, and (likely) in Alaska. People don't like it as a system.
