The list is complete! 🗳️ Candidates who filed are competing for important seats on the County Commissions, in the State Legislature, and U.S. Congress. 🇺🇸 👀 OUR TAKE: Because the 2024 Primary Election will take place on Tuesday, March 5th, Early Voting will begin in mid-February. There will be some interesting races such as the contests for Congressional Districts 8 and 10. Both are considered Republican majority seats and both outcomes will likely be determined in the Primary. The races for Governor and Attorney General will also get pretty loud as those likely to come out of the respective primaries, Stein and Robinson for Governor, Jackson and Bishop for Attorney General, all possess strong personalities. Please take a few minutes during the upcoming holiday break to research the candidates and try to determine where they stand on the important issues. Head to our newsletter to find the list of candidates for each county! https://bit.ly/3RwTocb #charlottenc #charlotte #gastonianc #belmontnc #uptownclt #huntersvillenc #corneliusnc #unioncountync #mooresvillenc #iredellcounty #mecklenburgcounty #gastoncounty #cabarruscounty #concordnc #harrisburgnc #lkn #mthollync #cltrealestate #landdevelopment #homebuilder #rebic #joinrebic #election2024 #rebicpolicyandlaw #ncga #ncpol

Good News: We can stop arguing over whether our country is a "democracy" or a "Republic" -- We are both! We are a representative #democracy set within a constitutional #Republic. Alright. That's settled. Let's move on... My left-of-center friends, generally, prefer the word democracy; and, my right-of-center friends prefer Republic (big surprise). Once a week, someone likes to correct me if/when I use the word "democracy" by itself. As a nonpartisan reformer and Independent #Voter, I'd like to see all of us focusing on renovating our Republic, and making it more responsible and more representative through open and competitive elections. Thanks for the great video and post RepresentUs!

Insightful piece on the need for electoral reforms, highlighting broad support among democracy advocates for open primaries, ranked-choice voting, and nonpartisan redistricting. These reforms aim to foster more competitive elections and moderate leadership.
Editor and writer about politics and democracy reform. Transformational leader. Content creator. Board member. Strategic planner.
I asked more than 50 democracy reform leaders to identify their top three priorities. They gave me nearly 50 different ideas, but three stood out more than the others: open primaries, ranked-choice voting and nonpartisan redistricting. https://lnkd.in/etCcbVz6

#477 Participation in the single-member constituency https://lnkd.in/efB8wGrA #news #trending Candidacy Announcement: Individuals who wish to run for office announce their candidacy. They may do this independently or as members of political parties. Nomination: Candidates must gather a certain number of signatures or meet specific eligibility criteria to be officially nominated as candidates in a particular constituency. Campaigning: Candidates engage in campaigns to promote themselves and their policies. This involves attending local events, canvassing door-to-door, participating in debates, and utilizing various forms of media to reach voters. Voter Registration: Eligible voters in each constituency must register to vote. This typically involves providing personal information to electoral authorities to ensure the individual is qualified to vote in that constituency. Election Day: On the designated election day, registered voters go to their local polling stations to cast their votes. Each voter selects one candidate from the list of those running in their constituency. Vote Counting: After the polls close, the votes are counted. The candidate with the highest number of votes in each constituency wins and becomes the representative for that area. Declaration of Results: The results for each constituency are declared, and winning candidates are officially announced. These results are typically tallied at the national level to determine the overall composition of the legislative body. Formation of Government: If one party or coalition wins a majority of constituencies, they may be invited to form the government. The leader of the winning party or coalition often becomes the head of government (e.g., Prime Minister in the UK). Representation: The winning candidate from each constituency becomes a representative in the legislative body. They are expected to advocate for the interests of their constituents. https://lnkd.in/eP62zZ_E https://lnkd.in/eRf8YmBR

As presidential politics take center stage, it's important to remember that state and municipal driven public policies have incredible impact on you, your business, or your organization. State preemption bills are on the rise and will impact everthing from healthcare delivery to building codes. Stay on top of this trend and keep key constituencies aware and engaged. https://lnkd.in/er_5yKeG

Politics and International Relations Graduate Conservative Party Staffer Interested in intergovernmental relations
The recent election results in Scotland are deeply alarming - we won a mere 12% of the vote. This stark reality demands immediate action. Our party urgently needs to re-engage and re-energise its members. A leadership election presents a crucial opportunity to achieve this, placing our members at the heart of determining the future direction of our party. This is a chance we cannot afford to miss. Equally concerning is that only 8% of voters aged 18-29 supported us. This trend is unsustainable. The incoming leader must prioritise listening to young people and actively addressing their concerns. We must embrace change and fresh perspectives as we navigate this critical period. Only by adapting can we build a Conservative Party that's relevant and appealing across all age groups. https://lnkd.in/drD4mXQc
