It is so funny when delusional Americans believe they live in a democracy and not a dictatorship of capital. It isn’t that people didn’t “vote” it is that the government there is structured to make sure that you never threaten capital. Alexis de Toqueville figured this out in the Eighteenth century that the US government is inherently despotic and relies on social norms. The fundamental structure of the constitution is broken and you will never have a “leftist” come to power there, it is literally impossible since voting is fixed during the redistricting phase.
