I live in a town that will be hard to win. But today a person knocked on my door and told me he was running for the NH State House.
Never ran for office before. Went door to door for Bernie.
Now he and 2 other Sanders people are running for the State House, and going door to door.
The best news of this entire election cycle.
I am thrilled. Yes I want Clinton to win, but no I have no expectations for her beyond the Scalia seat.
This. This gives me hope that the Sanders people are not like the Dean people. That they intend to stay involved.
very good to hear!
I am watching the Brand New Congress critters who are plotting for 2018. Not running a third way platform, but will be running Sanders-platform candidates in Republican-incumbent districts as well as Dem. THAT could get very interesting, given the wif of economic populism the voters were exposed to this yr. I’m thinking anti-corporatism will be selling very well in our stagflation.
To be clear, they will be running in Republican PRIMARIES on the Sanders platform.
as they should!!! very exciting
How large a movement is this? This could be good, but it could be bad too. What happens if we end up with an alliance between bigots and anticorporatists?
