The Unite America (UAI) Institute released new analysis Tuesday that found that less and less US voters (down to 7%) are deciding nearly 90% of US House races in taxpayer-funded primary elections. What’s more, the gap between these numbers is widening.

All of us remember when Vice President Mike Pence declared Joe Biden the winner of the presidential election at the end of a violent day at the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021.
