    The evil is sowing doubt in people voting. Representatives fail to represent sometimes, or even often. But not voting just means they don’t represent you at all, and don’t care that you exist when they represent you.

    If people didn’t show up and vote for their local officials, and state government officials… They have sabotaged their city/county/state/country.

    All of these representatives start somewhere. If we don’t follow and support the local ones that are good, they never get a shot at being say a congresswoman who can break the majority of super majority and help move politics in whichever directions we want them.

    (Cause guess where they come from if they aren’t politicians moving up… Either A. Rich or B. funded by the rich.)

      Yes! This is a form of organization. Which I think is a requirement for getting a more progressive government.
