Really promising sign!
The phone line for the local Democratic Party for my small town is in my house. It doesn’t get many calls because it was only installed a short time ago and isn’t listed in the phone book yet. This week an announcement started running on the free cable channel with monthly meeting information that listed the Party phone number.

So today a lady called and said she and her husband are “super seniors” meaning that they are 80 years old. She said she is afraid of what is happening in this country and wants to do something but that she wouldn’t be able to make it to the meeting due to her age. Anyway, she said she wanted information on how to change her voter registration to become a Democrat! People are waking up, I know it. This is a very Republican area and even the elderly are starting to see the truth.

4. your dem org needs to get ready
you're going to be bombarded with calls and info requests. the best thing you could do right now is to call the local (or nearest) lawyers involved with the aclu (or your richest dem party member) and ask them to underwrite or to share office space with you.
get your membership database in order and send out a direct mail request for donations NOW. repukes average 75 contacts with their members annually.
just ask for $10 or $20 right now to get started.

if you need more small town party org tips, PM me.
