16. Working together at the state level. |
|
I really think it's important that those of us who want to do something at the state level get in touch with local organizations who may already be doing this stuff. In my town there is an organization called Citizens for Equality that put 1000 pollwatchers in place for the election. I'm starting with them. I mean, I don't know crap about my state legislative process, but I'm gonna learn.
League of Women Voters might also be another good place to start. They struck me as very knowledgeable when I attended a post-election meeting.
Networking at the local Democratic clubs and asking around would help too. Chances are very good that most areas already have an organization that is interested in working on this and we just need to find them.
