I get the sentiment, and I would vote for AOC if I were in New York, but yeah... this election feels like a foregone conclusion.
Inb4: "A lot can happen in four months, you don't know for sure." blah blah blah
I don't live in the USA but people in our media say it too.
I don't understand it though: are there people that voted for Biden last time that will now vote for Trump, even though he is now a convicted felon, and tried to steal the election?
Or is it just that everyone thinks that people won't come out to vote for Biden?
Can you help me understand?
First Past The Post voting artificially limits the number of viable political parties to two. This leaves a huge portion of the electorate disenfranchised.
