The Primary is important

No question about it.

Another thing that is important, too, are local and state elections. As you canvass for your choice in the primary, it wouldn't hurt to be aware of who is doing a good job in your local and state candidates. Sometimes just mentioning somebody's name in the course of asking them to vote for a Presidential candidate can make a difference.

Getting out the vote is critical, and raising awareness of fine Democratic candidates both locally and at the state level is just as important!

I don't care if you want to vote for Hillary or Bernie - let's motivate everybody to vote for Dems at all levels of government. The more Dems we have in all offices, the better chance we have of getting important legislation passed!
