Druid has always been a unique class in world of Warcraft.
When released in Vanilla they made sure to have one race of each faction having the capability of being a Druid.
They kept this throughout all expansions giving the Druid availability a balance on both factions.
Until Battle for Azeroth …
Alliance only has three races that can be druids and that is Kul Titan, Night Elf and Worgen.
Horde has four races that can be Druids and that is Zandalari Troll, Normal Troll, Tauren, Highmountain Tauren.
Add a new alliance Druid, be fair please.
Also update my moonkin forms please and thank you.

Why are you complaining about this?
Troll/Troll and Tauren/Tauren is not 4 races for one class, it’s still technically 2.
Nelf/Obese Human/Worgen however are 3 races, so if anything Alliance has more, not less.
Unless we were to contend that Worgen are still human, so it would be Nelf/Human with an Obese option.
However, I disagree with that notion and say Worgen is not fully human.
Therefore, Ally has Nelf/Obese Human/Worgen, 3 different Druids.
While Horde, having Trolls and Tauren, get only 2 kinds of Druids.

Probably got more chance of an update to your forms then another druid race considering they just added KT and Zandalari this expac.

They could give you some reskinned Night Elves and Worgen, which is pretty much what they did with our Trolls and Tauren.

Clearly they needed to implement Mechagnome druids, where they would basically just be Transformers.

Relax, we still haven’t received the Allied Race version of Worgen yet.

Keyturn, s/he is not complaining. Learn to read.
I was really hoping they would somehow shoehorn in some type of mechagnome druid - I would 100% play that.

Deductive reasoning suggests that making a topic inferring a disparity in class diversity between races is, in fact, complaining, even with please and thank you attached.
Passive aggressive whining is still whining.

They usually balance it out with paladins. Alliance always has one more race that can be a paladin than the Horde.
This seems fair since Shaman are insignificant at this point. 
to be fair, I never quite understood why any race can’t just be druids (outside of mechagnomes/undead) given the requirements of having a long history of living among nature and having a deep connection to it and connecting with the emerald dream (something most races have and can do on both since non-druids have entered the emerald dream before.). even goblins and gnomes can be hunters despite being tech oriented races, if even they can learn to live with and off the land what’s keeping anybody from being a druid? (besides the forsakens’ aversion to life or a mechagnome’s mechanical nature).

While I might agree with you for other classes, zandalari forms are vastly different and very unique. Even troll forms are far more different than tauten when compared to worsen vs nelf forms.
This is such an irresistible idea that I feel like it will inevitably show up some time in the future.

Seriously though the only unquie race we have is zand trolls. Let’s be honest high mountain tauren and normal tauren basically the same thing. It zand is a rep grind that alot ppl wont have. So that leaves trolls and tauren.

I’m totally fine with Alliance getting another druid race; it does seem fair. On a technical level, the base races are equal. Troll/Tauren vs Worgen/Night Elf. However the allied races does make it feel like the Alliance got the shorter end of the stick.
The problem is, there isn’t a super viable druid race for alliance at the moment. Dwarves or Humans seem most likely, but I don’t think they’ll do it.
I think a good way to look at this is with Class breakdown by Faction:
Warrior:
Horde - 12
Alliance - 12
Hunter:
Horde - 12
Alliance - 12
Priest:
Horde - 9
Alliance - 12
Shaman:
Horde - 9
Alliance - 5
Warlock:
Horde - 7
Alliance - 7
Druid:
Horde - 4
Alliance - 3
Paladin:
Horde - 3
Alliance - 5
Rogue:
Horde - 10
Alliance - 10
Death Knight (with Shadowlands):
Horde - 12
Alliance - 12
Mage:
Horde - 9
Alliance - 12
Monk:
Horde - 12
Alliance - 10
Meaning there are a total of 99 race+class combos for the Horde and 100 race+class combos for the Alliance.

Had they made mecha-druids, I would be in game, RIGHT NOW, unlocking the race and leveling. Take my money, please… but NO!
Give Blood Elves druids as the horde really needs more druids. Reskin night elf forms to red, orange, and light browns. Give us a dragonhawk flight form and boom, done.
And give the alliance human druids. Spend your time giving them unique new models and non-reskins.
