    IEE: It isn’t happening.

    It would also require the Democrat will to move that mountain as above, which I don’t think exists even if there were supermajorities and governors to do it. They benefit almost as much from the 2-party system and electoral college as the Republicans.

    • even if there were supermajorities and governors to do it.

      Just pointing out again that this wouldn’t strictly be necessary (at least in the first phases).

      They benefit almost as much from … electoral college as the Republicans.

      Not really seeing how this would be. Don’t Dems have a disadvantage here?

      It would also require the Democrat will to move that mountain as above, which I don’t think exists

      Fair point. I wish I could disagree.

      They benefit almost as much from the 2-party system … as the Republicans.

      Right now I’m pro-Dem especially because I don’t like the other option but … it would be so nice to realistically have other options.
