    They know I vote every time, and I vote blue no matter who.

    Why should they care what I think if I’m not willing to not vote for them?

      The primaries are where you vote with your heart for the party you want. The general is pretty much always a strategic vote against the who you really don’t want to win. Granted, that requires more than one candidate running for the nomination, and if nobody steps up for it you’re kinda stuck. That’s what David Hogg’s plan is about. Funding progressive primary challenges in Dem-safe districts where the incumbent is asleep at the wheel. If that describes your situation, maybe write to Leaders We Deserve to get them to take a look at your district.
