    Well, out of the two of us, you either forgot about 2/3 of the last the last elections or chose to ignore then because you knew they disproved your point.

    And yes, the Senators is a weird thing but on the other hand, imagine how powerful progressive Senators could be if only progressives voted!

    Fwiw, the usual and more striking comparison for California and Canada is that California has almost as many people as all of Canada.

      1/3 primaries being bunk is not the W you think it is. I don’t know why you keep thinking it makes your cause look good. It makes your horseshit liberal electoral politics even more silly , which is actually impressive.

        It’s almost like there was something wildly unusual about the last candidate… Oh right, usually a candidate doesn’t drop out right before the election.

        Goodness gracious.

      Says you.

      I’ll rally the progressive cattle that outnumber humans in Wyoming and travel to the great Mormon state of Utah and pitch my case, post-haste! /s

      Which is why you should really reconsider how lacking your understanding is. I’m comparing states and provinces and the whole country of Canada can’t even match. You think California runs the federal government?

        Says you.

        ??? Okay, I’m so curious, what’s the third option? You didn’t forget the other elections, you didn’t neglect to mention them because they were counter to your point but instead…?
