That also seems to be an issue that keeps happening. Single issue voters. People get so locked in to one issue and will just straight up toss salad of the person that says they are going to make their issue their #1 priority.
Only problem is that #1 priority is on the same scale as 20+ other #1 priorities and the official is going to take on those issues that will benefit themselves the most.
My inner cynic is coming to the surface on this one. I would rather the GOP control all 3 branches so it doesn't give them an excuse that the "other side" is holding back progress or some other bullshit. Yes it would mean unchecked power, but it might be the only way to open people's eyes.....I can't even finish that because I doubt even that would happen.
