[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think both major parties are terminally out of touch, just in different ways. If you had to ask me what I think normal people care about:

- Some form of abortion rights but not in third trimester. 
- Access to birth control. 
- Generally pro-educator and pro-school but still somewhat frustrated about impact of school closures, worried about quality of education (perceived decline), and do not like interjection of teachers/administrators between parents and kids. Don’t want explicit sexual material in elementary and middle schools, but think book bans are stupid. 
- Generally pro-labor
- Okay with some gun control like red flag laws and assault rifle limits but not full bans. Very upset and worried about school shootings and moving more towards hardened pro-gun-control positions. 
- Think transwomen in women’s sports and particularly teen trans girls in teen girls sports is immoral, risky to the safety of the girls, and selfish. Skeptical about gender affirming medical care for kids. But also don’t think trans people should be discriminated against in jobs & housing. 
- Worried about sharp increases in crime and homelessness/vagrancy. 
- Are horrified by death of George Floyd and police violence, but also think “defund the police” is ridiculous 
- Are very worried about cost of housing and medical care.
