Step 8

Use your voting blocs to run and elect
your own candidates for political office
 

If your elected representatives and candidates for office refuse to follow your lead, use your voting blocs and shared agendas to run and elect your own candidates -- inside, outside or across party lines.

Your voting blocs can run and elect your own candidates in primary and general elections for all levels of government who share your policy agendas. You can run them on existing party lines, the Independent line or the line of a new political party that you or others establish.

If the number of voters in your voting bloc can match the number of typical primary voters, you can win just by making sure the members of your bloc show up to vote on primary election day. If you are short of that number, you can still win if your bloc can bring in new members through grassroots organizing and publicizing your candidates and policy priorities in the months before the primaries.

You can get vital help in winning primary and general elections by frequently querying the database of the public opinion polls published on this website to locate and put you in contact with new voters in your vicinity who have submitted policy agendas containing policy priorities statistically similar to those of your voting bloc and your bloc's candidates.

You can keep refining your agendas and the platforms of your candidates until you have the right mix of policy options to attract the number of votes you need to elect them in primary and general elections.
