@futurebird@sauropods.win As part of that change, I am giving serious consideration to changing my voter affiliation to Independent. I am watching the Democratic party on all levels fighting over nonsense and providing no leadership. If I call a Republican Rep, I am ignored. As far as I can tell, there is no fix.
Changing to Independent will afford me the opportunity to contact elected officials and candidates in an effort to influence which issues they address and how as they work to obtain swing votes.

I'm sure Republican politicians would be more willing to listen, and I bet Democrat politicians would too 🫠
