Dear Less Than 100 Hour Board,
Have any of you ever been involved in local politics and/or a political party? What is it like?

Re: Political involvement
In fourth grade I ran for school treasure. I promised my opponent I'd vote for her if she voted for me. I lost. That was about the end of my political involvement.
Re: Political involvement
Wow, she totally played you. That girl probably went far in politics.

Re: Political involvement
Sure. I was involved in the Utah County, Salt Lake County, and Clark County Democrats, and I worked for a politician once. I love that stuff. Go for it!

My husband worked on a campaign for a state senator once. He loved it. AND he got to meet this up-and-coming young senator from Illinois.....named Barak Obama.

Emiliana, is your husband Rory from Gilmore Girls? But really, that is so cool.
TBS, I didn't know you were involved with stuff, awesome. Well, I found out that there isn't a chapter of this political party in my county, but I might look into the Democrats as second choice (this is Texas afterall, it's my best bet really).

Out of curiosity, what was your first choice?
Re: Political involvement
Green party! They really align closest with my ideals, but I recognize they aren't likely to get much traction beyond maybe influencing bigger players.
