    Overcoming someone’s apathy towards voting is a huge success, don’t let yourself get down about how many you convinced.

      Thanks. I definitely see getting even one more person out to vote as a win, for sure. The big punch in the gut, though, was that the Democratic delegate for my county switched parties after being elected and is on board with this.

      Trying to stay motivated is about all I can do. 🥴

        I wish there were some (fraud) penalty for blatant misrepresentation in order to gain election.

          Indeed. At the very least, it should trigger a special election, and they should have to get elected as the party they’re switching to. I don’t know if some states do that, but mine definitely doesn’t.
