This is exactly what we need.
I've seen the same in small-town Mississippi: no serious challengers in winnable races, no serious Dem party support, no ground game at all. Step up. If you want change - and who doesn't at this point? - get a group together and just do the thing!

In my old town the GOP had run basically without serious challenge for decades. A bunch of us "millennials" joined the local Dem party and basically asked to help.
We were running it in a year. Within 4 years we had a majority of town seats flipped Dem. A FAR more progressive Dem than old party

“Rather than taking over the Democratic Party the same way the right took over the Republican Party, we should take the easier route and just start up a new party ourselves!”
