Party of One
As I suspected going into this primary season, I recently re-registered as a democrat in order to support progressive challenges to DC's entrenched dysfunction in the only way possible. DC republicans are as crazy as the national party and the only republican running that I could even stomach voting for is running for school board in another ward of the city than the one I live in, so there is no sense in voting republican in the primary this year.
The nation's capital is a great example of why all political change must come by way of the primary election system as well as by shedding of party identity as our primary motive for voting.
