How Do We Win The West?
Advertisements [?]
The growing sentiment from progressive communities seems to be that we can't win in the South without abandoning core Democratic principles. That in order to regain an electoral majority, we need to make significant gains in the Western and Midwestern states. The goal seems to be clearly stated. The avenues through which we can achieve that goal are less clear.

This isn't meant to be a discussion of candidates (though certainly that discussion is welcome), more than the issues needed to make the west ours, and fundamentally change the electoral math. The seeds seem to be there, in Montana, in Colorado, New Mexico, and other states, to build an electoral majority in the west. How can we make that a reality?
