re: #170 Anymouse 🌹

The Libertarians run for offices up and down the ballot here in Nebraska. While they don’t run for every last seat available, neither did the Democrats (until the last election).

The Libertarian senator over on the other side of the state was reëlected.

The Libertarians do seem to contest more elections than most but my point is for all the bitching I see about the two party system from people, I don’t see much accountability on the local level. If breaking the two party stranglehold were truly the goal, they’d run every seat they could but they don’t and I think it’s because of what DM said, they want attention brought to their issues and I must add, a lot of those issues are legitimate ones we should be talking about but don’t insult us who vote for one of the major parties as “sheep” when your party/ideology has a clearly different end game. And frankly other countries technically have two party systems too but coalition governance in parliaments strengthen the third parties. We don’t have coalitions in Congress.
