I'm curious to see how many of them are like me and chose to register as independent as I didn't want to be registered on an "enemies list" for Trump to persecute when he won. I'd have otherwise registered as a Democrat so I could participate in primaries.

I vote republican in the primary, Democrat in the general. My state has open primaries. But even with closed primaries, you can vote for whomever you want in the general. Register as a republican to vote in their primary and try to resist fascism.

A party that offers nothing except the other party's policies but 5% less racist/misogynist/homophobic deserves to hemorrhage voters and lose. When the DNC's sole goal is defeating their pre-Biden base, they shouldn't be surprised when nobody is a dem anymore.

If every single one of them had voted for Harris, it would still have been a massacre. Find a better scapegoat or face the facts.

Good chance they get what they voted for
