As much as I want them to move, I cannot endorse wanting them to come up short because the alternative is so catastrophic. I do, however, truly believe that if we can marginalise the Republican party we can move Democrats somewhat to the left, which is my medium term electoral strategy while working towards a long term where we can actually get real leftists in power.
It's not just that Harris is going to do things we hate. It's that Trump is going to do all those same things and more, and playing electoral chicken with the Democrats is quite literally risking the lives of many of my friends.
I get that. Bu if you could just hold off on voting till election day, she might change her position out of desperation.
Idk where you are, but where I am my vote gets put in a lockbox and only counted after polls close.
But regardless, I have external reasons why I have to vote early and absentee this year.
