    That’s the issue with the FPTP voting system, it always eventually leads to a 2-party state like the US and the majority of the population votes for someone other than the winning party.

    This happens in literally every country with the same voting system as the US.

    This is misleading.

    According to those stats, the majority of people voted for someone other than Harris as well.

    The real takeaway here is large percentage of people that don’t vote.

    Man if only there was some huge portion of left wing constituents demanding change over a tax funded genocide that the democratic party could have easily pandered to and gotten that extra 1% boost of votes.

    But like such a group would be too small to make a difference amirite.
