Tonight my own daughter broke my heart. On Facebook she announced that she is not voting.

179. Challenge her to do something else if she feels voting doesn't work for her... Become a PCP

Something where perhaps she'll see the process behind the scenes and subsequently see why voting, and ALSO being a part of the political process is very important at this point to reverse the current trends she's upset about (and many of the rest of us are too!).

She will see that many who are PCPs at the local levels share the same frustrations she does, and then perhaps understand that the more people that become PCPs with her perspective, we can change the way parties do business from the ground up.

I was just able personally to help our party locally here inch closer towards endorsing Instant Runoff Voting than it used to, and feel a good sense of doing my part, even if job hunting right now is keeping me from being more involved in GOTV efforts. Everyone has a way to fit in to the system of change. They just need to find it. And after being involved they will understand more the need to keep voting as the mechanism to synthesize those changes we're all working hard for now.

Not voting and disengaging totally is exactly what the corrupt part of the PTB want, and her getting involved will help her see that and know she needs to do something about it instead of surrendering to our creep towards fascism.
