The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
My wife and I just got a nice note of thanks from Kathleen Williams's campaign for our efforts in Big Sky. 147 votes in our tiny precinct might not seem like a lot, but with six contenders and her besting Heenan by 4193 votes in our county, plus the "Women For Williams" event my wife organized in Bozeman (same county, different/larger precinct) bringing in significant donations, we are feeling very much like an integral part of a winning team today.
Again, I love politics in MT. Even when it's shitty, our voices always count.
That’s very cool. The recognition that you have altered history for the better, even in a small way, is powerful.

Photo-Confederate Corey Stewart got the nomination in Virginia and Steve King refused to say if he considered himself a white nationalist after he retweeted a Nazi. Brothels are the least of their problems.
You have to hand it to them: Republicans can almost nominate a child molester, actually elect a man who physically attacked a member of the press, support a brothel owner, and embrace a president who stands against 90% of everything they’ve ever been, and still they stand united.
Democrats in one district nominate a young socialist, and it kicks off a fucking whirlwind of interparty “what does this mean for us nationally and how do we cope with such an event and what is even happening (Howard Dean voice) YARRRGGH”

so i attended our county dems' communications committee meeting last night. topics covered the planned launch of a redesigned web site, tailoring of content to drive people to the site, how to engage them in reality once they're at the site...
i think today's headlines to the effect of "dems want new leadership" is somewhat off-base. i think what's happening is that the established leadership is stuck in a rut, but all these new voices, angered by Trump & Co, are mobilizing more effectively than the establishment party

I just hope everyone will combine forces this time around and not fuck it up for the rest of the country again.

yeah, and i also hope the Hillarys and Wasserman-Schultzes of the world can stand back and let the new energy take the charge

Looks like the dems are nominating some pretty far left candidates over establishment ones. We're on pace for that commies vs. nazis civil war by 2022!
