Hey guys (some of you), contextualization.

Who is the "you" in 2 Peter 3:9? Well, it is the Christians previously discussed in the preceding verses and chapter (e.g., 3:8)...

This is by no means a verse refuting God's sovereign election, nor is it supporting man's free choice outside of God's sovereign election. It is a common misquoted verse.
