46. Actually, primary day is too late. We need a lot of progressives to show up at Democratic Clubs

and to support Democratic activities. That's the only way that we can get a voice first in our party and then in the nation as a whole.

I hear people say so often that they don't want to attend the Democratic Club because the people there are so conservative. And then we come to primary and election time -- and they don't want to vote because there aren't any progressives on the ballot.

It's up to you to get active in your local party politics long before the elections -- all the time. Take some responsibility. Don't just leave it up to other people to get out the vote and pick candidates.

Who knows? If you go to your local club's meetings, you might actually meet your candidates early enough to know who you are voting for in the primary. You might be surprised at how much you like some of them and how much they agree with you.
