Nothing will change as long as people keep voting for the same old policies for non-related reasons. I think a lot of conservatives and rural citizens would actually like bike paths and sidewalks everywhere, but keep voting against candidates who want these things because of non-related issues like abortion and resistance to LGBTQ rights. It's an awful feature of the two-party, winner-take-all system.
