In reply to the discussion: Progressive candidates flood Washington for targeted training [View all]Gothmog
(174,077 posts)13. Your OP talk about targeted training,
I just want to know who is being targeted? The local Our Revolution group targeted a candidate in my district[ because that candidate was "not one of us" and that Our Tevolution group did not want "one of them" on the ballot.
Candidate training is a good thing. I hosted ( bought lunch) a traing sessions held by the state party for candidates back in 2015'. Just for my county we had 80 people attend. 450 people serns low in that we have almost 200 races in Texas being contested for state and federal offices
Given the track record of the local Our Revolution group, it would would be nice to know who is being targeted
