At our County convention I had two members of permanent caucuses, when pressed for their opposition to Progressive Caucus, claim that PCs ‘values do not align with their caucus values’ whatever those are. That is the conveniently wrong metric; they align with TDPs overall mission which is all that matters. PC brings added diversity to a hidebound, chronically out of touch (until recently) leadership and a still entrenched roster of political hobbyists who have had their way overseeing decades of defeat.
Michelle is exactly right: this is about power. Add control and silencing loyal opposition and bold diversity. It’s what David Hogg confronted with Ken Martin and the crew of Dead-Enders at the still confused and nearly irrelevant DNC.
Michelle, what does it mean “not to adopt”? I ask because you stated “Precinct Chairs appointed by CEC?”
BCDP does this. So does that mean we don’t have to anymore?
Reading this makes me wish I was at the Convention to tell people to vote for Rule 1015. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Did not adopt.
Got It. ☺️ Thank you!

Don’t DNC my TDP.
100% and I’m stealing that. “Don’t DNC my TDP.”
Thank you, Michelle. Just shared on bsky. I can't believe the old guard & it's REALLY annoying!!! Thank you for all the invaluable information.
