Whoever seems to have the most support that is an independent. Or at least not a D/R

I've given every vote of my adult life to the Democratic party, and they have never meaningfully improved things in my lifetime besides the ACA.

We need leadership that wants to do more than just maintain the status quo.

I'll probably keep voting Democrat for local elections because I like the things my local reps have been doing, and the Republicans locally are batshit

If you don't mind me asking, just because I'm curious, what age range do you place yourself in? I don't want to know your actual age because I hate asking people for that direct of information online, but just using 5 year intervals, are you 20-25, 25-30, etc.? Only if you're comfortable answering because I'm interested in understanding trends as best I can.

I also think this is important to note, because a lot of the time the work is done at the lower level. Obviously with the current admin that has changed for America, but I'm at least happy to hear you feel represented by your local reps.
