Missing votes sat on their scroats and threw the election to Hitler.

This discussion would be entirely irrelevant if we had a more representative electoral system.

People could be free to vote how they wish, secure in the knowledge their vote would still be counted against the republicans.

The people not voting are disenfranchised by the two party system. Change how we vote and allow competition into the electoral process. Multiple political parties should be free to compete.

More people represented and involved in the political process

More people voting means more votes for democrats

More chances to defeat the republicans

More people on the debate stage calling out bullshit (and you could have still hold one even if one party decides to not participate)

And last but not least, shouldn't we want the most representative voting system possible? Shouldn't we be concerned when our working class brothers/sisters/so on are under represented to the point that they dont vote?

Still not convinced First-past-the-post voting is the problem? Republicans in Florida passed legislation protecting it. Republicans in alaska are trying to repeal Ranked choice voting because voters used it to pick a more moderate conservative (the alternative was Sarah palin).

Isn't the republicans liking and wanting something not the most ultragigagigantic red flag that ever existed?

Democrats have proven they can no longer go it alone. They had their chance. Time to swallow your pride and arrogance and let others participate. This fight isn't about the democratic party. It's about survival.

The United States of America is more important then the Democratic Party.
