    Every single independent voter I talked voted for Orange Nero. That is how they conceal their racist neo-Nazi bullshit beliefs.

      That’s because in practical reality, there are no independent voters. The vastly overwhelming majority of independents actually vote consistently along party lines.

        It’s an interesting assertion, which caused me to ask a question here: How are we defining “independent”, exactly?

        Because if it’s merely “not a member of a major political party”, it pretty much explains everything.

          It’s been defined a few ways. Based on registration and also self reporting.
