Episode notes
Vet And Staff Full-Time Workers
- Hire, vet, and train full-time staff rather than relying solely on volunteers for ballot-chasing.
- Run background checks and screen social media to avoid operational risks.
Left Uses Permanent Outside Infrastructure
- The left built parallel, permanent infrastructures (e.g., Arabella, Democracy Alliance) outside the party to replace weak party apparatus.
- Republicans lack that sustained outside-organizational muscle and therefore struggle to compete long-term.
Build Outside The Candidate Cycle
- Build long-term organizing outside of the candidate cycle to maintain relationships and legal readiness.
- Invest in continuous infrastructure because campaigns cannot accomplish multi-year community work in 12 months.
