    Have they Tried ALIENATING the Rest of the Base to pick up the Republicans who would Rather DIE then to Vote Democrat? That MIGHT Work!

      Maybe it’s because they don’t actually represent our interests and they are completely impotent. Just a guess.

    Kinda hard to recruit people to your side when all you have to offer is broken promises and inaction.

      I’m only registered as a Democrat so I can vote in my state’s primaries. I imagine that plus inertia are the main things propping up the current numbers.

      Why does this graph not show total registrations? Fuck the Democratic Party. They’ve dropped the ball consistently for too long. I only hope that enough leftists continue to vote in any races that survive this administration.

        Because that might change the narrative from one of dissatisfaction with the Democratic Party to one of disenfranchisement?

        (I don’t know if that’s true – I, for one, am pretty fucking dissatisfied with the Democratic Party – but it’s the possibility that most readily comes to mind.)
