The point in question is not whether it is justified or moral single-party rule. It is whether there is a shift towards single-party dominance.


So how does "more people voting" lead to single-party dominance? I only see one party working for that goal, and it isn't the Democratic party.


> I only see one party working for that goal

I mean, that's silly — any political party would love single-party dominance.

Democrats want "more people voting" because their thesis is that most disengaged or non-voters would default Democrat. It's fine if you believe is that "more people voting is good for democracy" but it's not the reason that the Democrats are focused on getting more people ballots.


The Democrats know they have popular ideas, I fail to see how that's a sinister motive as you imply.
