re: #547 Anymouse

Pretty much everyone here is already registered to vote. (Nebraska has one of the highest voter turnouts in the nation thanks to mail voting.) That said, this area is overwhelmingly Republican, so the task at hand is to educate people here on what our party stands for. Tough, since the media here pretty much ignores us.

I still have my letter to the editor pen handy though.

Well, what you can do as a local Democratically elected official I think is things like that but also lead by example. You can be their Village Trustee who happens to be a Democrat rather than the Democrat who happens be the Village Trustee. I think I saw earlier you mentioned that you helped a widow out. It’s that kind of stuff. Showing that Democrats care about people and that’s honestly what separates the two parties IMO is how we might get some process. I mean I don’t expect your town to go Democratic overnight but maybe we can get some increases.
