(36,063 posts)that is clearly evident. And it is that the NY State Dem Party still thinks closed primaries and surreptitiously purged voter lists are necessary in order to advance the careers of politicians.
Dem politics in many, perhaps most places in this country has the same problem that health care has long had.
Dem politics serves politicians. The consequence for governance is similar to the consequences for health-care when the medical industry acts to serve itself first. We don't get patient-oriented medicine and we sure as hell don't get voter oriented politics.

It took almost 2 decades for voter awareness to catch up with reality in anything approaching a majority.
