There are some parts of the US where they are not first-past-the-post.

  • Alaska - uses top 4 primary + ranked choice general
  • Maine - uses ranked choice voting
  • California & Washington - use a top-two primary

The Greens could effectively run in those places, as well as races where the Democrats aren’t running a candidate.

But when I see them running for local office, they’re basically running to be on the ballot, not mounting a serious effort to win.

The local NPR station has an answer:

‘Unbelievable’ insurance increases are walloping Nebraska homeowners. Climate change is a big reason why.

I suspect that hostility towards mask wearing and lack of maintenance due to the governor blocking congestion pricing are a much bigger deal

There are a lot of places in the western US where there aren’t any insurers writing new policies anymore.
