    I think most Democrats are interested in reform that would boost turnout. Higher turnout is usually good for Democratic candidates.

      Sure, but that is not the same as allowing another parties to take their votes that do turn out.

      Just look around here on lemmy, the democrats are milking the “we are the only alternative to hate and bigotry” for everything it is worth. I expect they would not even keep half their voters if a better alternative to voting republican existed.

        That would take moving to a system like in most European countries where smaller parties are viable in coalitions. Not gonna happen anytime soon.
