@HappytoBe@mastodon.social @futurebird@sauropods.win I'm wondering what would happen if more progressives changed voter affiliations to Republican (but don't actually vote for Republicans except in primaries). I'm sure Republican politicians would be more willing to listen, and I bet Democrat politicians would too 🫠

@raphaelmorgan@disabled.social @futurebird@sauropods.win I have often thought about doing that as well. In fact, I've done it several times to vote for the more acceptable Republican in the primaries. The problem is if I call a Democratic party politician and they see I am a registered Republican, my feedback will be immediately discounted. I believe the only people politicians listen to are those registers in their own party or Independents (who these days, more often than not, they need to win).
