We are suffering with that all along the west coast.
People complain and bitch all the time then just vote in the incumbent or a recycled version of them. Mostly because those already in power have bent their knee to corporations and lobbies, so as long as they play ball the campaign funding will keep flowing.
Most primary attempts are just drowned out by the money and fatigue of voters seeing too mant candidates that say the same thing… so incumbet it is.
Then comes the election where they get to choose, the same old thing OR some maga qanon crazy ready to take away basic human rights.
