Now that the left 100% knows that the Democratic Party will never allow them to work within the party, it's time to get serious about an independent or third-party candidate. with no ties to either major party and a clear independent program. Those voters who are registered as Independent or who don't follow their major party line or who currently don't vote at all represent a majority of all voters, significantly more than are registered with either party.

And de-register as Dems if indicated… I canvassed for Bernie in 2020, and in WA state where I live, I had to change my registration from independent to Dem in order to cast a vote for Bernie in the primary. I’ve been lazy about changing it back. Wonder if there are many like me?

Same here. I stay in the Democratic Party so I can vote in the Democratic primaries. I voted and donated to Bernie’s campaign in 2016 and 2020.

Yep, that's the problem with going independent: In a lot of states, you are essentially disenfranchised.
