The counterintuitive thing that everyone here MUST DO is contact their local democrat party and ask how they can get on the local election board and party positions. Then do the republican party too. The reason is simple.if you don't want to continue to get screwed by the two poor choices both cuddly parties give us then you must fill BOTH parties with rational people. Those local party members will resent your interest. They will put up mild and subtle unstated roadblocks to you at first while pretending to be cooperative and then irrational more verbal roadblocks as you keep pushing over time. But the fact is most of the local people are unused to having resistance and are usually rather strange and weird people who don't have much backbone. Most are there precisely because they follow orders from higher ups and are very compliant. Learn the rules of the party and how they are supposed to fill positions. Then do those things. Watch as they quickly change those rules as you comply. Record everything and then publicly point out these rule changes and make everyone realize these organizations are actually illegally and or improperly closed organizations. This turns their base against them or forces them to comply with more open rules. Start calling your local parties now. Today. This morning. Right now. Google or duckduckgo.com the phone number for the local party and start by saying you want to volunteer. Then go to meetings or get on their zoom lists. This is how rationale Americans win.. by taking over BOTH parties and ending the planned two false choices and methods given to us every election. It will take time. Get started now. you need to be in position in a few months and that won't happen unless you start today. Remember all the important decisions by a party are made more than a year in advance of the next election. so you need to have worked your way in to your local position within a few months. You don't have a year do to it. You must start today. I personal saw Pat Robertson take over local republican party caususes simply by sending large groups of people to vote in them . The party can't really turn them away. They tried to. legally they couldn't because there was no predetermined method to determine or exclude new causus members. Bush later had to have "rump" caususes which were unsanctioned caususes by shady groups voting only for George h w bush (gw s dad). Iliterally saw these happen at caususes and some people broke off from the official meetings and declared themselves the official meetings and did a separate vote to support bush instead of pat Robertson. Those bush fake caususes were later determined by the courts to be illegal and the official caususes that had been flooded by pat Robertson people from churches were ruled the votes that counted. I cannot stress enough how important it is to do this in the democrat party. It may go against every cell on your body but you must do it. if you were ever a registered democrat or independent will be easier. But they can't stop you from being a new democrat. Same for republicans. Pat Robertson did all this in one election cycle. It takes no time at all. You simple need to show up at the voting meeting. Its literally a one day thing if you gather your group to go to the causus ahead of time.it only take about20 to 40 people per local causus to overwhelm them. pat Robertson drew from local churches so ot was easy to get those numbers However it is far better if people get into those election positions as well.
