Yeah. I suppose people like me have always voted for independents, watch them get absolutely taken by two-party candidates with a massive corporate bank roll to campaign with, and the only change we ever got we earned in the streets because most elected officials are bought by lobbyists, but don't want massive protests in their cities so they make changes to get people back to being tourists and whatnot.

Maybe you got some white light, but I think you have corporate sponsored candidates that you like that supposedly do things you like. That's not how I've ever earned the sorta changes to my community I've desired. And I feel like I get small wins almost every year.
