If you and everyone you know could convince your GOP family members to either vote Democrat or just to sit this one out, and say so in the polls beforehand, the Dems wouldn’t have to court the disaffected Republicans this way.

This is why centrists exist. We vote left currently, because of insane people on the right who take advantage of the weakness of partisan mentalities.
