This was in spite of the well-known mathematical fact that an Independent issue must be campaigned on to win an election. Instead, they were "hoping" (officially) Rs would change their mind.

I have been an Unafilliated Independent since the day I first registered to vote in 1977. The Independent voting base is larger than either the Democratic or MAGA voting base. Literally EVERY single national political race in America is decided by the Independent voter.

Neither side can count on my vote. They have to earn it, every time.
