Democracy is when only 14% of voters get to decide an entire election and the other 86% are functionally meaningless (hexbear.net)

This is based on 43 states being considered "non-negotiable" and "set in stone" while only 7 are considered "swing" states

Also consider I specified "voters", who are at best only 2/3 of the total population, which leaves out about 100 million extra people

2020 primaries are needed to be encased and shown to everyone who still hold any delusions about democracy in USA, Bernie was constantly either in the lead or close to it everywhere, Biden wasn't even really talked about at most i heard "Biden, nah, he's too old and too rightwing" and then suddenly boom, nearly every other candidate suddenly quits and supports Biden, and the crowd went with pure "vote blue no matter who" extasy.
