Just voted and it was pointless

21. Why don't you?

Just saying' Haven't seen you asking for contributions of votes here, like Rep Grayson and a few others. Are you personally running for office?

Filp answers like yours aren't the solution. So one cannot complain about the lack of democracy without personally sacrificing to try and fix a problem that is not of their own making? It is the state and local party's job to have candidates running, to recruit people who are willing to give up their time and energy to do so. How many of us here at DU would be willing to do this, to perhaps go unemployed if they lose? Few employers are going to just let you go off and campaign. And the OP wasn't complaining about dogcatcher, they were complaining about state level offices, so don't act like campaigning could be done part time.

The Democratic party has seen a decline nationwide in elected officials. That needs to change and the people with experience need to lead the charge.
