Folks it's not enough to just vote if you want actual, legitimate change. Register for the party that aligns with you most, and get your boots on the ground by volunteering, attending events, and becoming a registered party member.

People are crazy if they think the average person is alright with this.

Being a registered party member also allows you the opportunity to become involved in the process of choosing the best candidates for the next election.
