If you live in a Red "crossover" State vote Republican in the primaries. Are you listening Ohioans? Vote to win open seats and vote out Republican incumbants in all contested primaries. I'm a registered Democrat in GA but I can vote in either primary. Unlike say NY where you can only vote in the primary of the party with which you are registered.
If you live in a hopelessly red state, district, county or city don't skip the election. You can still make a difference by voting in the other primary. Vote for the weakest candidate the one least likely to generate interest. The poorest candidate who is not a professional politician and is least likely to explain away voting irregularites due to having a solid base and experienced co-conspirators.
Vote out the incumbant and you vote out the experienced candidate and his co-conspirators who know the ins and outs of the system. This forces the losing Repug to believe he should have won.
These self serving bastids will now be at one another's throat because the incumbant will be forced to use his Diebold machine against his own party. This creates more opportunities for mistakes as well as more disgruntled co-conspirators and potential whistleblowers. Vote in Republican primaries! A lot of Incumbant Republicans in Georgia where Democrats a few years ago. That will add fuel to the fire when a "true" Republican has to take a back seat to a convert. Anything similar happening in your state?
In 2002 Cynthia McKinney(D) of GA was voted out of office because of the "crossover" vote and a few Diebold Machines. She spoke out against B*sh, about 9/11 and about Saudis in planes during 9/11 when the rest of the country was grounded. These Saudis may have had answers to some questions and McKinney spoke out about it. As a result the Repukes targeted her and used Diebold machines to get rid of Roy Barnes, Max Cleland and McKinney all in one year. Of course they credited it to the crossover primary votes but we all know they used Diebold to gain the difference. In 2004, McKinney won back her seat by babysitting each Diebold machine in her district among other reasons.
Georgia is a very red state but it is 40% minority. There is no way it can be as red as they would lead us to believe. That is why we have the new Voter ID law. Non-whites will be the majority in years to come and the Republicans don't want to lose power. It also means that Georgia is in danger of becoming the Blue State Anchor of the South if Florida hasn't beaten us to it. Georgia will be the South's version of California in the West or NY in the NE. ATL is already considered the "Little Apple" by some.
