    Agreed. My local area put a progressive (u know, an actual one) in office a couple election cycles ago and shes been very popular with her constituents.

      Progressives are so much easier to elect locally. It’s a much simpler sell to point out local issues with progressive solutions than it is to make larger, sweeping changes at a state or national level.

        Bottom up, amigo! When the low level supports more progressives at higher levels, those endorsements from popular local officials will go a long way.
