12. Perhaps and AM and a PM caucus for each voting district
I am not talking about making it hard to vote, I am talking about requiring just a slight bit more participation to vote at this level. My plans in the OP would make it feasible to do. This isn't about disenfranchisement, it is about inclusion, but at a deeper level. Whatever we can do to create more interest and participation in the happenings of gov't at any level is a good thing, IMO. I have mixed feelings about closed vs. open. With open contests, it seems like we can grow the party a bit, which is always a good thing, but of course it leaves the door open for Rush's butt-monkeys to do damage.
